How to Reduce my Data Usage

Great Ways to get better at Saving your Data

1. Use Wi-Fi Whenever You Can

  • Always connect to Wi-Fi at home, work, or trusted public places to save data.

  • Download apps, updates, and large files while on Wi-Fi instead of using mobile data.

  • If you stream a lot, make sure you're on Wi-Fi before watching videos or listening to music.

2. Adjust Your Streaming & Download Settings on your Phone

  • Lower video quality on YouTube, Netflix, and other streaming apps to 480p or Auto mode to use less data.

  • Turn off autoplay videos on social media so they don’t start playing on their own.

  • Download movies, music, and podcasts ahead of time while on Wi-Fi, so you don’t have to stream on the go.

3. Limit Background Data Usage by your Phone

  • Go into your phone settings and turn off background data for apps you don’t use often.

  • Change email settings to refresh less frequently instead of checking for new messages constantly.

  • Turn off push notifications for apps that aren’t essential, so they don’t use extra data in the background.

4. Use Data-Saving Features

  • Enable Low Data Mode (iPhone) or Data Saver Mode (Android) to reduce background data usage.

  • Use Google Chrome’s Lite Mode or a browser like Opera Mini, which compresses web pages to use less data.

  • Set app updates to Wi-Fi only so they don’t download over mobile data.
