Traveling out of the country with an iPhone?
So I'm leaving to France soon and want to take my phone but at the same time sacred because I don't want to pay ANYTHING while I'm there. I don't want to use text messaging or calls or anything I just want to be on Wi-Fi there. So if I turn my data off, and voice and data roaming off and be on Wi-Fi I'll be ok? Like seriously tho I don't want to pay a crazy bill when I get back.
Well yeah being solely on Wi-Fi won't use up your data or anything
Yeah. You can turn your phone to fly mode. Then no text or phone. The only thing you can use is connecting Wi-Fi.
Read how celluar data and airplane mode work as you will be using these:

- Will T-Mobile charge me extra for texting out of the country? One of my friends is in Egypt. She texted me last night and I hesitated to reply because I was afraid that they would charge me like $20 since its Egypt. I ended up replying once and now i'm afraid. My mom will kill me if they charge a lot. However, I have unlimited texting and she texted me from an app which is from the iphone i think… Will they charge me?
- Will Sprint Unlock My iPhone if I'm Traveling Internationally? I'm going to Philippines with my friend in two months and I was wondering if Sprint would unlock our iPhones. If they will, would it be free? Cause I plan on using it in Philippines. We're just going to buy a sim card. When I was with T-Mobile, they unlocked my phone for China.
- Will I still be charged out if country for this? So I'm in Mexico right now and I don't want sprint to charge me for internet or anything. I have it on airplane mode and turned off cellular data in the settings. I'm running on Wi-Fi so that's how I get on here. Am I good or is there still a chance I can be charged? I have sprint and an iPhone 5s if that helps.
- Why won't my iPhone 4S make or receive calls when traveling internationally? Celluar data is turned off because i don't want to get charged. My phone worked the first week I was in France. Now it doesn't work, still in France. My phone doesn't detect calls and when i dial numbers it doesn't ring
