When I had airplane mode on, I still got text messages. At first, I thought I hadn’t pressed the button correctly. On the second try, with airplane mode ON, I was even able to go on the internet & order something!
Anyone have the same trouble as I’m having?
iPhone 14, iOS 18
Maybe something unknown could be happening in settings?
A general understanding of how Airplane mode supposed to
work, states facts. However something else may occur that
might be to blame for added functions that should be OFF.

Some suggest this 'airplane mode' was circumstantially "unreliable."
