Android consumes much data because of the apps installed and we all know how expensive our Internet data packs are.[/div][br][div align="left"][font face="Arial"][font size="3"][font color="#1c1c1c"]So for this,useful tips that will[strong]help you minimize your Android data usage[/strong][font color="#1c1c1c"]. This method is going to save your money which is being charged for extra data usage.[/div][div align="left"][font face="Arial"][font size="3"][font color="#1c1c1c"][br][/div][div align="left"][br][/div][/div][div align="left"][strong][font size="3"][font color="#008000"]1. Change Your Browsing Habits[/strong][/div][div align="left"][div align="left"][font size="3"]It’s always better to browse the mobile version of the website on a mobile device, so, avoid using the desktop versions of a site if you can. Also, despite taking up a fair amount of storage on your phone, the browser cache is actually a good thing here. By preserving your cache, you won't have to download images from frequently visited websites every time you visit them.[/div][div align="left"][div align="center"][br][/div][/div][/div][div align="left"][font face="Arial"][font size="3"][font color="#006400"][strong]2. Limit Background Data[br][/strong][/div][div align="left"][div align="left"][font face="Arial"][font size="3"][font color="#000000"]Your smartphone’s Settings menu will display which apps have access to data, allowing you to turn off the unnecessary ones.[/div][div align="left"][font face="Arial"][font size="3"][font color="#000000"]mobile phones, open settings > Data Usage > Open each app you would like to turn off and select Restrict app Mobile data.[/div][br][font face="Arial"][font size="3"][font color="#006400"][strong]3. Sync Your Playlists[br][/strong][/div][div align="left"][div align="left"][font face="Arial"][font size="3"][font color="#000000"]Streaming services like YouTube, Spotify, Vine and other video and music sites are huge data killers. If there’s a tune or album you’re constantly listening to at the gym or on the way to work, you will use much less data by loading it onto your phone and listening to it offline, than endlessly streaming it from the web. Ensure that you sync your playlists to your phone so that you can listen to music offline, and avoid racking up bills while you are on the move.[/div][br][font face="Arial"][font size="3"][font color="#006400"][strong]4. Set Data Alert[br][/strong][/div][div align="left"][div align="left"][font face="Arial"][font size="3"][font color="#000000"]You can view how much data you have consumed on your Android device, but you may find this useful only, if you reset the limit each month to get a complete idea of your average use.[br][br][/div][div align="left"][ignore_js_op][/ignore_js_op][/div][font face="Arial"][font size="3"][font color="#006400"][strong]5. Disable Auto-Updating Apps[br][/strong][/div][div align="left"][div align="left"][font face="Arial"][font size="3"][font color="#000000"]If you have set the Google Play Store to auto-update apps, even over a data connection, it could cause a huge drain of your data allowance every month without your knowledge.[/div][div align="left"][font face="Arial"][font size="3"][font color="#000000"]To check the settings, go to the Play Store and swipe out the left-hand navigation drawer. Tap Settings and you will see Auto-Update Apps at the top. Tap this and ensure that you either have it set to ‘Do not auto-update apps’ or ‘Auto-update apps over Wi-Fi only’. To manage individual apps, go to My Apps, choose an app and then tap the overflow menu to check, or un-check Auto-Update.[br][br][/div][div align="left"][strong][font color="#006400"][br][/strong][/div][div align="left"][strong][font color="#006400"][/strong][/div][font face="Arial"][font size="3"][font color="#006400"][strong]6. Share Photos, Videos and Other Files via Bluetooth or Xender[/strong][/div][div align="left"][div align="left"][font face="Arial"][font size="3"][font color="#000000"]Bluetooth could be a huge data saver when the intended recipient is nearby.[font face="Arial"][font size="3"][font color="#000000"]N[font color="#000"][font face="Arial"][font size="3"]ote that the destination device must also have Bluetooth enabled, and you must know its name to find it[font size="3"][font color="#000"][font face="Arial"]in[font color="#000"][font face="Arial"]t[font color="#000"][font face="Arial"][font size="3"]he list.[/div][div align="left"][strong][font color="#006400"][br][/strong][/div][font face="Arial"][font size="3"][font color="#006400"][strong]7. Try Not to Upload, Download or Send Pictures or Videos Using Data[br][/strong][/div][div align="left"][div align="left"][font face="Arial"][font size="3"][font color="#000000"]A single minute of high definition footage taken on a modern smartphone can take up as much as 200MB of data. Single photos can easily exceed 40MB. Don’t even think about uploading these to Facebook, or downloading pictures and videos from friends, unless your mobile data plan can handle it.[/div][br][font face="Arial"][font size="3"][font color="#006400"][strong]8. Identify and Limit/Remove High Consuming Apps[br][/strong][/div][div align="left"][div align="left"][font face="Arial"][font size="3"][font color="#000000"]You can take a look at the apps which are consuming the most data.[/div][div align="left"][br][/div][font face="Arial"][font size="3"][font color="#006400"][strong]9. Make Use of Offline Apps, Maps, Games and Services[br][/strong][/div][div align="left"][div align="left"][font face="Arial"][font size="3"][font color="#000000"]Some apps and games require continuous internet access to function: this can be simply a security measure or because they continuously need to retrieve data. However, there are some apps and games that don’t require internet access at all after the initial download. Look for such offline apps, games and services to save your mobile data.[/div][div align="left"][font face="Arial"][font size="3"][font color="#000000"][br][/div][div align="left"][font face="Arial"][font size="3"][font color="#000000"][br][/div][div align="left"][div align="center"][font face="Arial"][font size="5"][strong][font color="#ff00ff"]How much data do you use every month?[/strong][/div][div align="center"][font face="Arial"][font size="5"][strong][font color="#ff00ff"]check out my profile posts for more tips to help use your mobile efficiently[/strong][/div][/div][/div]作者: gabby2017 时间: 2018-05-30 18:33
