Re: Tips To Reduce Your Mobile Data Usage by onatisi(m): 11:01am On Jul 24, 2015 |
freeDR:they can also use data sense . The beauty of Data Sense is that you can set up and customize the app to meet your specific requirements. You might be on plan that gives you 500 MB per month or you might have an unlimited plan, it doesn’t matter since Data Sense will still help you. The first time you launch the Data Sense app you’ll be asked to set a data limit. You can do this at any time if you skip it initially, and you can edit the information you enter whenever you want. Though keep in mind, skipping this step will make Data Sense assume you have an unlimited plan. |
Re: Tips To Reduce Your Mobile Data Usage by onatisi(m): 11:04am On Jul 24, 2015 |
onatisi:You have a few options for selecting a limit in the Data Sense app. None specific – Will help you conserve cellular data, but Data Sense can do more if you enter your data limit. One time – This is useful for those on prepaid plans. Select this option to enter the remaining days until your data expires and the amount of available data. Data Sense will notify you when you approach your limit. Monthly – This is for those on contracts who have a given amount of data that they must use within the month. You can select which day of the month your data resets and how much data you’re allowed to use in that month. Like the above option, Data Sense will notify you when you approach your limit. Unlimited – This is for those who truly do have unlimited data. Most data will go over your cellular connection, but Data Sense will still keep track of how much data you and your apps are using. It’s very important for you to select either the one time or monthly option if you fit into those situations. Data Sense will help control the amount of data your apps use in the background. For example, if you have a limited amount of cellular data, Windows Phone 8.1 and Data Sense will save certain downloads and background activities for when you’re connected to a Wi-Fi network. Look for a shield icon over the Live tile for Data Sense on your Start screen. Pro tip: Pin Data Sense to your Start screen, as the app has a Live Tile that reveals your current usage Through the app, you’ll see the number of days and amount of data remaining if you have a one time or monthly limit set. Do you have an unlimited data plan or didn’t specify a limit? The Data Sense app will still show your cellular and Wi-Fi data use over the past 30 days. The Live tile for Data Sense will also keep all this information surfaced on your Start screen if you pin it, which is why we highly recommend doing it. |

In addition, use Glo data plan. Though the Internet service can be a pain but it's affordablely economical cos Glo allows you to carry over any unused data. Let's say I buy a 4.5gig data plan for N2500 for 30 days. What you do is, b4 the expiry date, let's say a day to it, subscribe for a N1000 plan which gives just 300mb for 30 days. Now, you have extral 30 days. This is very affordable because I've tried the Internet service of all other GSM operators and Glo data consumption rate is the slowest- Airtel is the highest. I use 4 gig for 3 weeks on Airtel, I use 2gig for 3weeks on Etisalat, 2 gig for 3 weeks on mtn but Glo, I use 2 gig for 4 weeks. And ur recharge also comes with some bonus airtime to call ANY network in Nigeria. Note: I don't stream videos. I just download music and apps 1 Like |
