[@tastysandwhich]

Some apps will use background data even if you have background data turned off.(As in they aren't even open or in use, still doing their own thing.) It's pretty annoying.

[@MF-le7fp]

I agree....the GUI switches are a joke. They are essentially still there at this point to humor all of us. I'm not laughing, though. Reminds me of the taxi scene in the movie, "Police Academy." "This meter lies! It's a lyin meter!" What actually brought me here, was when I "turned off" the huge rack of Permissions to the bundled AT&T app (Transfer & Backup) on one of their Android Go phones (Nokia 3.1A), and watched the app re-enable every single one of them right before my eyes after about 30 seconds. 😲😖🤬

[@Atul_Bhardwaj]

If any of you guys want to completely disable apps when you are not using it(they won't use your ram, data and basically like disabling), in android 9(might be different on your android version) find developer options and set no background apps in background process limit. It will turn off all apps in background and will show you notifications when you open them. Keep in mind that doing this will also block messages from apps like whatsapp, messenger and will reach you only when you open that app. So make sure to open them time to time to check for new messages and notifications.

[@ssun098]

Thanks, i will try this 👍

Is there any way to do this for a specific app? I want to disable background activity completely on certain apps . I've been looking for months for such a feature :/

[@ClintBox]

Unfortunately, this does not prevent the app from using your mobile data. It simply restricts background mobile data usage. My problem is that I have an app that used 2.09 GB of data in the foreground (probably large images scaled in the app.) But, it only used 0.01 GB in the background. For me, I want this app to give an error if it's not on Wifi rather than allow it to use mobile data while I'm using it in the foreground. Suggestions for that?

[@akafoxter2421]

This app offers in-app purchases so I don't think it's "Open-source"

[@0..022]

The "in-app" purchase is for the pro version, which unlocks a few extra (but not necessary) features. The app is indeed open source and can be sideloaded from F-Droid, github, or from the site directly. Edit: In fact, I would recommend downloading directly from the app dev's website, because even the free version hosted there is slightly more comprehensive than what's hosted in Google.

[@khudadadhussaini9695]

If you read this, stop watching it. This is what i did after reading some comments.

[@bikersoncall]

I think this helped me, not positive, never went through app usage and what runs in the background . My question would be ; why do they tell us to save on data usage by being connected to our wifi? I don't get the difference, I mean I'm not on satellite , so I would think that when I'm away from my connection I can't be using data, right,,, shrugs...... I did turn off News Alerts though, I imagine that constant data usage will be stopped unless I turn it back on. I figure weather alerts are handy though, I got one the other day and it was quite helpful, plus I looked into the usage and it was really low compared to News Alerts.

[@sunlite9759]

Great video; What about Wi-Fi data? Turn on WF and turn off mobile Data. Only use Wi-Fi for updating apps. Only use mobile data in a strong signal. ( No use wasting data for poor reception.)

Thanks, had to figure this out after watching one anime episode cost me over $17 in data :(

[@MakeUseOf]

Damn, sorry to hear that, I can't imagine being on a data limited plan.

[@Mobliz]

@@MakeUseOf Yeah... Google Fi. Has it's benefits and drawbacks. Data is charged at $0.01/mb or $10/gb (free after 6gb). The nice part is if you don't use data, you don't pay for data! While there is still a base charge of $20/month, the max possible bill is $80/month. This might not be the best in terms of an unlimited plan, but if you're normally sticking to wifi for all video watching you won't pay much more than $20/month . I have wifi at home/work so it's very rare I need to watch videos with mobile data unless I screw up and turn wifi off by accident :P Thanks again for your info on NetGuard. I should hopefully never have this problem again, haha!

How I can allow an app to use data

[@bikersoncall]

So when is 'Mobile Data' being used , under what circumstances? What is 'mobile data' compared to what ? Asking for a friend.... :)

[@0..022]

Mobile data is used in the background when the apps "phone home," which is to say that they are recording data about your phone usage across the entire system and sending it back to Google, Facebook, Analytics services, etc. This is one of the ways smart phones spy on people. Edit: Regarding your second question: compared to using wifi for the same tasks. So ultimately it's in your best interest to download Netguard or another firewall anyway in order to prevent the apps from phoning home via wifi. Understand that your pc internet browsers are doing the same thing, which is why it's important to avoid the use of Chrome and Microsoft Edge, in particular.

Thank you. I realized recently my data is being used by messanger/fb? I dont understand how that can be when im home all the time and using wifi. I have heard that facebook and messanger have this issue. How do i stop this? I can try your recommendations on this video which i am sure will work but how is messanger using my data if im always home using wifi and everything else uses wifi perfectly. I never had this problem until recently. Thank you

[@MakeUseOf]

How do you know it's using your mobile data? If you're on Wi-Fi all the time, they wouldn't be. Of course the moment your Wi-Fi breaks, they will keep in contact using small amounts of data to check for messages. But realistically, this shouldn't be enough data to care about, so I suspect the premise is wrong: that's not what's using your data.

[@jeffreyscottfishman]

@@MakeUseOf it is because i checked the usage on my verizon app breakdown and it shows im using 87% of my data from that exact app. Messanger.

[@MakeUseOf]

Very curious. I'm not familiar with the app, but I would have thought only the operating system has access to that sort of information. Are you video calling people on messenger, perhaps? That's the only feature I can think of that would use data.

[@jeffreyscottfishman]

@@MakeUseOf Yes. I only use messanger to video call 1 person on facebook. But isnt it suppose to use my wifi?

[@MakeUseOf]

In theory, yes, but its possible your Wi-Fi was broken at that particular moment, and it just used your mobile data instead of failing the call. This tutorial will only help will background usage though. Do you have a Settings->Connections->Data usage->Mobile data usage ? If you find Messenger in there, see if there's an option to restrict mobile data usage.
