You only really need to do it for take of and landing.
But you still don’t have data or GPS or anything and a lot of flights don’t have wifi so pretty useless unless you have offline games or downloaded shows/movies/audiobooks.
Idk I’ve never been able to get GPS on my phone to work on a plane always. I think consumer devices have it disabled over certain speeds/altitudes so people can’t make home made rockets and shit.
While that is true, commercial flights aren’t going over those limits (they’re to prevent ICBMs). I used it on my last flight without issue and could see how close to my destination I was, how high the plane was and how fast we were going.
Might just be my phone then… I fly pretty frequently and often check my phone to try and see how long it might be until landing but often it just shows the take off point

You have GPS, it literally only receives so it can’t affect flight instruments.
