Plug Off Airplane
This is a very simple app that turns off Airplane Mode when the USB cable is plugged in. The idea is to make sure Airplane Mode is turned off at least once a day, in a safe location in terms of metadata: the home. Your telecom already knows your device belongs to its billing address. This makes it easier to use Airplane Mode to disable the cellular radio during the day, when it is not needed.
