Your iPhone has a lot of different options and settings that you can use to get it ready for certain situations. This includes things like Screen Time, Do Not Disturb, and Airplane Mode.
You can turn on or turn off airplane mode on an iPhone 13 by opening the Control center, then tapping the airplane icon.
