Make a few changes before travelling
- Download offline maps, playlists and videos over Wi-Fi.
- Turn off automatic app updates and cloud photo backups on mobile data.
- Lower video streaming quality and disable autoplay where possible.
- Use your phone’s Low Data Mode or Data Saver if available.
- Check which apps are using the most mobile data.
- Limit hotspot use and disable large updates on connected laptops.
Use trusted Wi-Fi for large downloads. Keep important security updates enabled, and do not enter sensitive information on an untrusted network without appropriate protection.
These settings reduce consumption; they do not change a plan’s allowance or extend its expiry. Check your remaining data and validity on the eSIM management page, allowing for the network’s usage update delay.
