Most pc and smart phone users (android,phone,ipad,BB e.t.c)
do suscribe
For data that will enable them to browse the internet and
make use of series of apps on their mobile phone and pcs.
But even after using their money to subscribe for either
daily, weekly or monthly packages you still find it difficult to use it till the day
it will expire even if you are not
downloading or watching youtube and so on.
Sometimes you receive a message from your network provider saying “Dear
customer you have exhausted your data bundle bla bla bla.…” which makes
u surprise and at the same time annoyed.
The truth is that
most app are tricky, they contains some cunning features hat goes secrectly to
consume all your data without your notice.
I will teach you how to get rid of those apps and finally
take control of your mb.
BELOW ARE THE SIX APP SETTINGS YOU CAN ADJUST TO PROTECT YOUR DATA USAGE:
6. Netflix: lower
the data usage .
Most of us have been complaining about the over consumption
of data by this app.Today I’ve got a solution
to that.
HOW TO:
leave it in automatic mode or
deactivate it ,by doing this you can use 1GB for almost 4hrs.Though you may nt
get the exact quality u want but atleast it has helped u allot in saving large
amount of data.
5. Youtube: HD
videos.
We all know that youtube is a site where you can only get
videos to watch or download and notin more.
After watching a movie that last for 1 or 2 hrs plus ,
nowadays after watching the first one it will take you to the next one without
clicking it and you will not be told that you’re only left with little m.b
…..lol
I’ve found a stressless solution to that,which gives u the
option to only play videos in HD when connected to wi-fi.
HOW TO: open ur youtube app ,enter settings>> play HD on
wi-fi only and click to activate
4. Spotify:
offline mode .
Allot of people today uses spotify for their music needs bcuz it’s cool( like about 75m in the world)
and the larger percent of them streams online when dey listen their playlist
especially when u put it on repeat and u,re just enjoying it not know that your
data it disappearing bit by bit.
The simple thing you have to do is that on each of the album
or playlist ,switch to “ Availble offline” ,by switching this, it will automatically
download that particular playlist u are listening to, so you don’t need to be
conneted to the internet again.I hope this will help to save your data.
3. Chrome:compresing pages.
When using chrome(google chrome) on mobile there is an option that says reduce
data
This features will compress the pages u visit. That is to
say your browsing speed will reduce a bit ,but to me I think it worth it in the
long run.
HOW TO: open your chrome
, enter settings>> bandwidth
management>> reduce data usage. Click to activate then u‘re done.
NB: this method is only available for mobile
devices.
2. Facebook : Auto-play
videos.
These days we find very interesting videos on facebook that
looks so attractive ,but with the default auto-play features harms ur data.
So, you will see it below how you can restrict auto-play to
only be active when using Wi-fi or turn it off completely .
Enter ur phone
settings >> Facebook>>settings>>Auto-play and click on the option you
prefer.
1. Google map :offline navigating.
Not many persons know that one can save certain map and use
it offline.To download a map may take part of ur time but once u’ve downloaded
it you can get it to use anytime.
