Check your applications

The application settings in your mobile phone or Task Manager feature in your computer can inform you of the consumption tendency of each application. Turn off the applications that require a lot of data, especially for those you don’t use often. Then, clean up your device from unused applications.

Auto updates settings

Turn off auto updates or choose a Wi-Fi only setting. Auto updates settings can be set in each application, but you can also set it all in Play Store or App Store settings.

Deactivate auto synchronization

Data synchronization process (contact, calendar, email) in mobile phone and computer actually requires a lot of quota. If you want to save Simpati internet quota, it is better for you to non-activate the setting. The setting is located in Account settings, either on mobile phone or computer application. It is recommended for you to use the synchronization when connected to Wi-Fi only.

Use Google Chrome or Opera Mini for browsing

Data consumption activity is affected by the type of browser you use. To save internet quota, Opera Mini and Google Chrome are providing Data Saver feature or Best Compressor Data.

Use offline mode for YouTube and Google Maps

Both of these applications require a big amount of quota. It is recommended for you to activate the offline mode. With this feature, if you open up the same video or same route, you don’t even need internet connection.

Activate Mobile Data Limit feature on Android

Android has a special feature that could limit internet data usage. To save your Simpati internet package, activate the feature by entering the settings then choose Data Usage and activate “Set Mobile Data Limit” choice. The internet connection will be disconnected when your data consumption is exceeding a certain limit.
