This is the biggest case of "It's not a bug it's a feature" that I've ever seen. Where can I file a bug against Apple to actually be able to quickly toggle my radios again?

I am ecstatic that your mojo came back. No idea what that has to do with the question but hey, it's a free country.

Cell signal is different than Wifi/Bluetooth Radio. Do your research. But you do sound like the sort of person who likely should not own a cell phone at all. You'd be totally safe that way.

Do a Google search for earth is flat and compare results with your medical search.

Give it up Idris, there are minds that permanently in output-only mode

I feel a certain civic responsibility to counter bad science.

Hope you have plenty of time to spare, there is a lot.

This is almost as bad as the moon-landing deniers.

I suspect that we're talking about the same people. Don't get me started about the anti-vaxxers - they should be criminally charged.

Yes, this is not the appropriate venue for an extended conversation on that matter. But, we are agreed.

I stand corrected. Please continue to keep your cell phones in your pockets.

Google is the answer to all questions.

CAUTION

You have entered a fact free zone.

You mention your reproductive apparatus fairly often I see.

That new feature is really annoying, I'm use to turn on WiFi and Bluetooth only if needed and to turn it off when I'm done, to avoid, for the least, power consumption while looking for useless WiFi connection's. The disabled WiFi state concerns 95 % of my use cases.

I don't care about Apple products connectivity, I have none and don't need anything but my iPhone SE and that's it (I wouldn't have chosen Apple anyway if it wasn't the tiniest smartphone I could buy).

When I'm only using phone call features, I'm already having cellular radio-frequencies passing through me, no need for some extra radio network search protocol coming from WiFi or Bluetooth in the meantime, it's just polluting my environment and burning stored energy.

For me, this change just sounds like planned obsolescence by reducing battery lifetime, and it occurs specially when iPhone X advertisement begin !

If quick disconnection from network, without disabling it, is useful, I think adding the option in the WiFi and Bluetooth settings sounds like a good idea. Or maybe the control center could have a 3-states toggle button, since it already have a 3-states symbol.

iPhone has good hardware parts, but after 1 year I'm still not satisfied with the software part. This new weird concept of disabling without disabling is just pushing me far away from Apple a lot more.

The failure of proper science education in schools never ceases to amaze and sadden me.
