How can I save data usage on my iOS device?
Enabling Low Data Mode
Apple users with iOS 13 and later can enable Low Data Mode to limit and save cellular data. Low Data mode is available for cellular and Wi-Fi, and you can activate them independently.
Follow these steps to get started, and please keep in mind that your carrier may have different Low Data Mode settings.
- GO to Settings and TAP Cellular or Mobile Data.
- TAP your preferred SIM.
- TAP Data Mode.
- ENABLE Low Data Mode.
Disabling Wi-Fi Assist and iCloud Backup
Wi-Fi Assist and iCloud Backup may be enabled by default. If you don't want your iOS device to stay connected to the internet when you have a poor Wi-Fi connection, you can disable Wi-Fi Assist. At the same time, disabling iCloud Backup can help you minimize your data usage.
- GO to Settings and TAP Cellular or Mobile Data.
- SCROLL down and DISABLE Wi-Fi Assist and iCloud Backup.
