iOS 11 Really Turn Off WLAN - How to Do It

With the introduction of iOS 11, there have been some big changes to the iPhone's Control Center. For example, WLAN and Bluetooth can no longer be turned off completely from the control center. All non-Apple devices will be disconnected, but the service will continue to run in the background.

How to really turn off WLAN and Bluetooth in iOS 11?

There are several ways to really turn off WLAN and Bluetooth in iOS 11.

1. The fastest way to turn off WLAN or Bluetooth is to use Siri. To do this, simply say "Hey Siri, disable WLAN" or "Hey Siri, disable Bluetooth".
2. Furthermore, you have the option to put your iPhone in flight mode. To do this, open the control center by simply swiping up from the bottom of the screen.
3. Once the control center is open, tap on the small airplane. Now all radio connections are completely turned off. However, no other connection will work in this mode. Mobile surfing and making calls are therefore also not possible.
4. You can also disable WLAN and Bluetooth via the settings. Dazu öffnen Sie die Einstellungen-App, diese ist mit einem grauen Zahnrad gekennzeichnet.
5. Um nun das WLAN zu deaktivieren, gehen Sie weiter auf „WLAN“ und deaktivieren die WLAN-Option ganz oben.
6. Um das Bluetooth zu deaktivieren, gehen Sie auf „Bluetooth“ und deaktivieren die Funktion.
