» 7 Smart Ways To Quickly Save Data On Your Android Phone «

If there's one thing that android phones are well known for
among others is how much data it consumes since data
bundles are becoming quite cheap *thanks to Glo* most
people still find it annoying, personally i know how that
feels.
I can still remember the first android device I used
"Huawei U8650"
Being a newbie back then my data bundle and airtime did
not last that much untill I started implementing the
following steps which I will list out then explain to you.
In A Nutshell 6 Smart Ways To Quickly Save Data On Your
Android
Restrict background data
Use browser with data saving feature
Set data limit
Set app updates over wifi only
Use opera max app
Use data monitoring apps
Turn off data roaming
Restrict Background Data
Yes! you guessed right, this is placed at number one
because most android user don't get know anything about
background data or if it exist.
Heres a little something on background data
As the name implies its simply help background running
apps like whatsapp, facebook, to receive or use data even
when you are not using the app thus leading to loss of data
without you knowing.
If you are the kind that does not have enough data bundle
on his or her android device and would like to turn off this
feature please follow these steps.
Go to settings.
Click on data usage.
Click on the small icon at the top to display a menu.
Tick on the restrict background data option .
Use Browser With Data Saving Feature
Most of you just use browser like Opera mini and UC
without knowing about the data saving features on it.
If you are a die hard Opera and UC browser user like me
you would notice that Opera and UC has being making
moves to help their consumers reduce data consumption
by adding data saving options.
If you are using your phone's or laptop default browser I
would advise you to switch to Opera mini or UC browser.
Alternatively you can set image quality to medium or low.
Set Data Limit
If you don't want to over use your data bundle you can
easily set up data limit to notify or switch off the data
connection when the data limit is reached.
To set up date limit on your android smartphone follow
these steps.
Go to settings
Go to data usage then click on set data limit.
Note: use your hand to adjust the level to the amount of
data available.
Use Opera Mini Max App
Alternatively you can use the Opera mini max app to
compress videos, texts and picture hence reducing data
consumption.
Set App Updates Over Wifi Only
You must have gotten a notification of an update about/of
an application. If would be wise to set this to off or over
wifi to unwanted data loss.
Use Data Monitoring Apps
To add to it, you can also use data monitoring apps to
keep tabs on how much data you are consuming.
This feature can also be found on opera mini and UC
browsers.

Turn Off Data Roaming
This is almost the same with background data.
This allows an app to receive data when you are roaming.
To turn this off follow the same steps you use to turn off
background data.
Then tick on turn data roaming to off.
Or simply identify the apps that consumes more data in
data settings to know apps that consumes data the most.
