1. Auto-playing videos on social media
Scrolling on Instagram or Facebook and videos start playing without you clicking? That burns data FAST.
🛑 Turn off auto-play in settings.
2. Leaving data on overnight
Your phone could be syncing emails, apps, and updates all night while you sleep.
💡 Always turn off data before bed — unless you're downloading something.
3. WhatsApp media auto-download
Those unnecessary videos, memes, and photos your friends keep sending? Yeah, they’re draining your MB.
Set WhatsApp to manual download or Wi-Fi only.
4. Background apps using data
Apps like TikTok and Facebook can use data even when you're not using them.
Restrict background data for non-essential apps.
5. Streaming in HD all the time
Watching YouTube in 1080p looks great, but it kills your data in minutes.
I would advise you to use 360p or “data saver” mode.
