Most modern phones don’t actually turn off, they just go into a very low power state. If you have an Android phone, it records where it’s been through GPS and sends it when you power back up.

“Most modern phones don’t actually turn off, they just go into a very low power state.”

That’s why my default device is BlackBerry Classic. If I’m traveling and need certain apps, e.g., AAA, iExit, Maps, FlightAware, etc., I’ll switch the SIM to my Android. Otherwise, I’m happy with the basics and a little privacy.
