WHY YOUR MOBILE DATA FINISH SO FAST.

Have you realized that the normal 1GB you normally use for one month does not last up to a week?

You may be blaming the network providers but it may not be their fault. Let me give you a little assignment. Go to settings on your phone , tap on network settings and tap on data usage, scroll down you will see the apps that consume your data.

What consumes Mr.A's data is not what consumes Mr.B's data. From my little research the major things that consume data so much are: YouTube, Instagram, Tethering /hotspot, whatsapp and Facebook/messenger app.

Have you done the assignment above to see what actually takes your data.

YouTube:
Last week I was in Abuja and wanted to stream the TAPE worship concert organized in Lagos by House on the Rock. I decided to stream via YouTube and discovered that 1GB is gone in one night. If you love going to youtube or any Online streaming be ready to spend on data. I agree that there are so many tutorials you may need to learn but then there is a way out. Stick with me.

Instagram:
The president was right when he said that every Nigerian is a comedian. Instagram have things that can keep you busy when you are bored but it is a big data consumer as you see pictures and watch videos. My little advice. You can be going there once a day instead of going there every hour.

Tethering and hotspot:
There are things you will need to do on laptop and you will need to tether from your phone to your laptop. It consumes lots of data as your laptop is seeing it as a Wifi and begin all manner of updates especially if you are using Windows 10. That is the price we pay for using the latest OS. Another issue is when you share data to your family and friends. Most smart mobile phones are configured in such a way that when it detects a Wifi network, all apps begin to update automatically from play store so imagine when the person you are sharing data with have 25 apps that are not updated, your data will just finish. You can also disable updates on laptop when using hotspot

WhatsApp:
WhatsApp also consumes data. Disable auto download of pictures and videos that are sent to you. All the videos and pictures sent to all the groups you belong to download automatically and it does not just take your data but it slows down your phone so disable auto download. WhatsApp now have photo and video status updates which also consume your data as you upload and view other peoples status. I have more than 1000 contacts on WhatsApp so you can imagine how it eats my data.

HOW CAN YOU SAVE DATA?
You can do your streaming in the night by using MTN night plan which gives you 500 mb with N25. So you can use N50 and get 1GB which lasts between 12 am and 4am for those in MTN pulse by sending "NIGHT" as SMS to 131
But then you may need internet in the day time for one or two things. You can subscribe for cheap data with us. Imagine getting MTN 1GB at N700 and MTN 2GB at N1250, very cheap right? MTN can give you 1.5 GB at N1000 which lasts for just one week on MTN pulse but you get 2GB at N1250 which lasts for 90 days.
