Hello everyone

I know this is kind of weird but my phone is receiving calls while in airplane mode I still don't understand what the benefit of airplane mode is if the phone receives calls while it is activated

I don't think it gives the phone wings when it falls to fly

I have another question, is it possible to make the top notification bar that shows airplane mode, Wi-Fi, and the clock appear in the screenshot when I take it because the phone deletes it automatically it made me to use another phone to take this picture

Have you got WiFi enabled while in airplane mode? If yes then wifi calling also remains active

Disable hide status and navigation bars under screenshot and screen recordings

Flight mode turns off mobile networks, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, however if you enable Wi-Fi while in Flight mode, and Wi-Fi Calling is switched on, then this feature will allow calls over your Wi-Fi network. Furthermore, if you enable Wi-Fi while Flight mode is switched on, then this will be remembered next time you use Flight mode.

It is a matter of convenience. I always leave Bluetooth on in airplane mode so my attached devices remain connected. Similarly, wifi can remain enabled for whatever reason. Not everyone has wifi calling active
