[Feature Request] Programmable safety delay between disabling airplane mode and enabling radios #4035

Open graphener opened 3 weeks ago

Probably everyone has accidentally disabled airplane mode at some point, and sometimes in a vulnerable location. It would be desirable if there were a programmable delay between the time you disable the toggle and when radios actually power up. This would give the user the opportunity to realize the mistake and reenable airplane mode. I would suggest a default of one second, and options up to several seconds, but even just the option to impose this delay would be highly desirable.

You can remove the quick tile to avoid the main way you could accidentally do it. You could still do it there even with a delay.

@thestinger Thanks for the advice, which I hadn't considered. But actually I was thinking of this as applying to both the tile and the airplane mode toggle in Network settings.
