Saving Mobile Data While Streaming
Streaming video can use significant mobile data. Use Data Saver mode to control your consumption when on a mobile or limited connection.
How Much Data Does Streaming Use?
| Quality | Data per Hour |
|---|---|
| Low (Data Saver) | ~0.3 GB |
| Medium (SD) | ~0.7 GB |
| High (HD) | ~3 GB |
| Ultra (4K) | ~7 GB |
Enabling Data Saver
- Open the app and go to Account Settings → Cellular Data Usage (or Mobile Data).
- Under Streaming Quality on Mobile, select Save Data or Low.
- This setting applies only when streaming on mobile data — Wi-Fi quality is unaffected.
Wi-Fi vs. Mobile Data for Downloads
In Download Settings, enable Download over Wi-Fi only to prevent large downloads from consuming your mobile data plan.
Tip
Download content at home on Wi-Fi before travelling. This gives you high-quality offline viewing without using any mobile data.
