3 very easy Ways to reduce data consumption on android without using any app

Android devices as we all know android devices consume loads of data to the extent service providers have also moved from the days of offering unlimited data to offering a few gigabytes. Now is the time you should reduce your data consumptions but the question is how?

HOW TO REDUCE YOUR DATA CONSUMPTION ON ANDROID

Reducing data consumption is one of the easiest and also one of the best things you can do to help you. Today I will be giving you very easy and summarized step by step approach on how to reduce your data consumption without downloading even a single app.

  • Restrict Background data usage: Some apps just enjoy using background data hence they keep on wasting your data on some things you may never need talk less of want. These apps need to be prevented from doing so ASAP. To prevent this, go to Settings>data usage>tap on the Android menu(for 4.1 and above) >Restrict background data. 
  • Find mobile version of websites: When you surf the net on your android, scroll to the bottom of that page and request for the site's mobile version which is much lighter when it comes the data size. This means that instead of 10mb, you get only 5mb size. I've been using this and it has helped me alot especially when I'm not using Wi-Fi. 
  • Enable compression in "compression-enabled browsers" :  Opera mini and Google Chrome and some other browsers have features under their settings which help compress the size of Web pages before they are sent to you. What it actually does is that before you access a site, all the data on that site is sent to a third party server for it to be totally compressed before it is sent to you. Google Chrome's is named "data saver" and Opera mini's, "off road mode".
