How much phone data do you use?

GDB2222 · 2024-03-16 14:33:44

I have recently bought a pay monthly sim for my phone that has 12 gb of data per month. After 4 days use, I have only used 130 mb. We have Wi-Fi at home, so the phone data is only used when out. I haven’t yet watched any films. If I did would that push up the data used a lot?

Zero.
I made a conscious decision to turn it off along with wifi.
So many creative things I used to do got replaced with browsing.
I see so many people sat by the sea or in beautiful countryside here with amazing views they've come for but are instead looking at screens. It's not for minutes but hours.

I am on payg and can turn it on is needed - tempted by some fun apps but hanging in there. Leaves a little mystery in my life too. I don't need to know everything instantly .

I can rise and shine - just not at the same time!
viral kindness .....kindness is contageous pass it on
The only normal people you know are the ones you don’t know very well
