You need an excuse to hang up a call?

[–] 666dollarfootlong@lemmy.world 14 points 1 day ago

I mean its more polite than just hanging up without a notice

put it on airplane mode too

[–] HeyJoe@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Depends were you are. Mine allows wifi calling and airplane mode keeps wifi enabled so calls would still reach me. I actually prefer airplane mode at home since my service is so bad and it seems no matter what iphone prefers cell service over wifi unless absolutely necesarry so i leave it in airplane mode at home to ensure call quality is good.
