good morning
todei was curious to know which app was draining my mobile data
checked and found the culprit was shopee
using my data even more than google/spotify
then i disabled the background data usage and disabled the mobile data usage
wonder what was the app doing bekos i didnt buy anything since 10/10/21

wow, you're right, it used more than binance

but did you use shopee to get the free coins? probably every time you access the app, it downloads massive files.

furthermore how much data are we talking about. for me it's 460mb this month alone

2021

Still got data limit?

Not most prepaid / postpaid plans unlimited now?

i only use it when i want to buy something
not sure how to get free coins---never used free coins before
around 200+mb this month, in comparison, google or spotify was below 50mb

Can teach how u disable background?

got
10GB for 1 year, prepaid

can but first you must change your avatar

No browse item? Those images could use a lot of data.

got , only when wifi available

Oh No.

Shoppe been very slow to load lately. Don't know what is the problem. Hopefully they fix it ASAP.

in the first post when you said you didn't buy anything and shopee still uses data, i'm assuming that you check the daily use?

when data use sort according to day. mine was consistent though. i didn't use shopee today (yet) and it didn't show any data used today for shopee app.

shopee app do have background notifications, that could be the cause of data usage too

Zaman skrng got people still use mobile data with quota?

Nowadays Rm30 per month can get unlimited data already. No longer care if the app secretly download more data.

shit, gonna check my app now

How to check?

nope, didnt check daily---just checked todei only

maybe background notifications the culprit--thanks

asuming you use android,
settings----wifi+network----data usage

most of the time on wifi
when i'm out rarely use mobile data
but last month i changed my hotlink plan to the 1 year plan and bought 1 year data 10gb, so hoping to control the data usage to last 1 year
yes, cheapskate is me

My highest usage is Brave Browser "Private Mode" of course
Watch too much prawn

But I do agree with TS, Shopee is highest for apps not including Chrome, play store , etc

I rather have quota with no speed limit
Those unlimited plan all speed limit, icon 4G, but limit 3mbps, 6mbps

Need quick check just hold app icon, info, data usage

shoppe alone took almost 1gb of storage wtf

i delete it straightaway

Shopee I think loads a hecking lot of photos. Browsing shopee for 30 minutes makes my phone become warm, even warmer than when I play games on the phone.

Not much? Facebook use more data than all apps

Interesting I use Lazada everyday shoppee like for top-up je so that like a weekly or monthly thing cos no free shipping. Jilaka shoppe really use alot data

Wow really topkek. Jilaka shoppee really eat alot data at back ground. 1 month plus dy dint log in binance but I'm okay with it.

Which phone that you are using?

Which phone?

Check for notification in shopee app > account settings > notification > push notifications.

I disable those irrelevant to me like chats, promo, livestream, feed. I think chats especially use many data.

Galaxy A51

From a Home screen, swipe up from the center of the display to access the apps screen.

Note These instructions only apply to Standard mode and the default Home screen layout.

Navigate: Settings Settings icon > Connections > Data usage.

From the Mobile section, tap Mobile data usage.

Select an app (below the usage graph) then view the usage.
Note To restrict the app from using data in the background, tap the Allow background data usage switch to turn off Switch off.

Can't even exceed 1gb data monthly...

Thank you bro

No problem ya.

So now it's OK for Shopee to eat data is it?

Even though seldom open

Ok..got it.

New phone, iPhone 13 ultra pro max 1TB

nothing on mine, but I disabled all the notification and gave it the bare minimum permissions.
