6 Amazing ways you can use Airplane Mode to Change your life

Sure airplane mode is a smartphone function that is basically meant to be used when you’re at 30 000 feet, but there are plenty of other situations where toggling the switch can change your life. Here are six:

When you really need a good night’s sleep – It’s the perfect plan for some solid rest. Switching on airplane mode means you can disconnect knowing you won’t be woken up by a late night message or email, but you can still use your smartphone as an alarm clock. It’s a win-win situation.

When your battery is running low – Airplane mode helps you preserve the battery percentage you have left on your phone for emergencies later on instead of wasting it on automatic activities you don’t need. Such as refreshing your email inbox and updating your apps.

When you need to charge your phone really fast – You walk out the door and realise your phone is only at 4%. All you need to do is plug it in, turn on airplane mode for 10 minutes and watch it charge at amazing speeds.

When you want to limit your distractions – For those who just need 15 minutes to think without being interrupted, you can completely shut out the world with just the tap of a button. Just because your phone is flipped over doesn’t mean the temptation to continually check is gone. Although if you disable your data, it does!

When you’re traveling internationally – Unless you’ve arranged for an international data plan, you will definitely rack up a crap load of roaming charges. Turn on airplane mode and you eliminate that function, don’t worry you can still use your phone as a camera.

When you’re at the movies – Switching your phone to silent still means your phone will light up like a strobe light whenever someone likes your Instagram post. No service means no fellow movie watchers getting irritated.

When you really need those few minutes of quiet or your smartphone addiction is getting too much, then tapping that switch to airplane mode can really help you out!
