    Airplane mode is a blessing. If the OS is trustworthy (i.e. FOSS Android) then it actually works, it turns off that crappy unprivate cell connection and you have anonymous Wifi only.

    It saves battery and you can use your phone without anyone being able to track you easily.

    Btw Google hides the GPS quicksettings toggle for a reason, edit the shortcuts and add it.

        If you randomize your Mac address (which is default on GrapheneOS and Fedora now) you are pretty anonymous to the wifi network.

        Of course websites see where you are, they always do that. Use Tor or a VPN.
