Text messages in airplane mode?

Question

I’ve looked at a few other posts and not quite sure I have the same situation.  I’m currently visiting Thailand, my iPhone is in airplane mode and I’m connected to Wi-Fi.  I’m getting iMessages as expected (blue bubbles), but I’m also getting regular SMS text messages (green bubbles).

Wi-Fi calling is turned on, is that why they’re still coming through?

Answer

Thank you for reaching out here on this platform. If you have Wi-Fi calling on that would be the reason. I would put the phone in Airplane mode if you would rather not receive any calls/messages. -Dolores
