Ready, Set, HACK your tech

We may not always be aware of what consumes our mobile data. Whether it's sending messages to friends, listening to podcasts or watching YouTube, all of that can contribute to a large bill. Here are a few ways you can manage your phone's data consumption:

RESTRICT DATA USAGE ON YOUR DEVICE

Modern phones offer a feature that lets users limit the amount of data they consume by preventing apps from using it in the background. Smartphones can also track the amount of data you've used over a certain period and will warn you when you're reaching your limit.

USE 'LITE' APPS

Many companies offer 'lite' versions of their apps that reportedly use less data than the standard ones. You can find and download them on the App Store and Google Play.
