I still get the "Strong Interference" and "Strong WiFi interference" warnings popping up, even when flying nowhere near any power lines, etc. Not sure why. I have my iPhone 11 on Airplane Mode and its Bluetooth turned off; the only thing that's running is its WiFi, connected to the P3S.
Any ideas as to:
a. what's causing it and
b. how can I correct/disable/get rid of it?
I normally just ignore them, but it does bother me when I see them popping up.

Did you try to switch frequencies?
 
I have the same, flying with Litchi and Phantom 3S. I also ignore the warnings when they are unexpected. Those warnings came up after an update, before, there were no warnings. So I think that the warnings are a bug and not a real danger.

However, even when I was flying out "in the boondocks", about 30 miles (Chino Valley, AZ) north of here, nowhere near any homes or businesses (or power lines), I was still getting them popping up every few seconds or so, sometimes in rapid succession.

I'm more worried when such warnings appear at or before taking off. Changing the take-off place usually helps.
And don't forget to switch your mobile to the flight mode when flying a drone. Often people forget this.

For some odd reason, this observation reminds me of the advice given to me by a college professor many moons ago: " Whenever you sense a train of thought materializing in your brain, lie down quietly and try to relax until it goes away."

Apologies for this minor digression. Normal transmission may now resume.
 
The interference can be sometimes solved by switching from 2.8MHz to 5.6MHz. This is a standard option in Phantom and in Mavics as well I believe. Usually 2.8 gets more interference. You can do it during the flight or set it as auto switch if one band has issues. But I'm not sure if this 'auto' really works.
