Keep Mobile on Airplane mode while you sleep

Continued vibrations, radiations and blue light from the phone affect normal sleep. People sleep less and are becoming less adept at what they do during daytime. So it's good you get it to ariplane mode. I personally keep my phone far away so that I won't be able to see it, and when the alarm rings, I have to get up to stop it, so there's less chance of shutting it up.

Keeping phone on silent before goin to sleep is the norm at my place. But scientifically speaking, it doesn't matter if you turn it off or not, what matters is the time interval between you having last stared at the screen and you hitting the pillow. The blue light tinge in your cell screen light triggers chemicals in your brain that are associated with you remaining awake. So you watching your cell is actually you telling your brain to stay awake. There should be a 1 hr gap between the two for you to reallllyyy get a sound sleep.

I have never used the airplane mode and don't have any idea what it is for.

What does the airplane mode do? Will you still be notified if you get a call or text?

I leave it on since it hardly ever rings unless something urgent crops up and someone is trying to reach me..

It's a new information for me! Let me try during my next air travel. But I would like to know the benefits of airplane mode and how to do this on a Nokia model which is more than three years old.

I sometimes keep my phone on 'flight mode', while sleeping. I've not closely observed if it helps in sound sleep. . It all depends how tired I am, if I am tired, sleep catches me up quickly. Otherwise, I prefer to switch it (mobile) off when I am going to sleep. If mobile remains 'on', it keeps radiating and some applications keep running in the background, which drains out the battery . I do not like to be disturbed by a phone call, when I've gone to sleep, therefore, I switch it off, most of the times.

I just leave mine on, as i get notifications, and I want to keep up with them, as i get a lot on my phone. I put it beside me on the bed. I don't get phone calls, but I still leave it on, becasue my son requested that I do so, in case he needs to get a hold of me.

I don't switch it off or change the mode. But it remains in a different room.

i can't sleep when flying, if I do drop off to sleep it's only 10 minutes or so before I wake. My mobile goes off while flying.

Mine is always on. But I placed it away from me. However, there are times that I forget it's on my bed and I just discover it when I woke up in the morning. I'll try to make it on airplane mode too.

I just leave it as it is because if there's any emergencies, I want to make sure I'm notified. But then again, I live in a tsunami prone zone so that's why I'm worried.

I don't get any phone calls or texts during the night so I don't have to worry about sleep being interrupted.

Is there a reason you put it on airplane mode and not on silent? I usually just put it on silent.

haha :D What an idea! Mobiles have engulfed people's lives so much that we want to get rid of them at least for some time!

Hi This is a good idea for those who used to get any kind of notifications from phone. But mostly I don't get any call or message at night. So I don't switch it off. And it don't disturb my sleep as well.... I have to keep it on as I don't want to miss any emergency call if something happens.

When I am asleep I think even ambulance's siren cannot wake me up! haha!

thats real good if thats the reason your getting to sleep i like when i got good sleep

I would try this.

I agree with the fact that cellphones are one of the major cause for insomania.If u want to get a good sleep u shud keep it at a managable distance.But i don't think it is necessary to keep it on flight mode because u don't know when it is a urgent call.
