- Tap on specific apps
- Toggle“Restrict background data”
This ensures mobile data is used only when the app is open.

Play Store updates can drain balance in the background.

Untrusted websites or pop-up ads may trigger auto-downloads or data usage.

Do Not Share Hotspot Without Monitoring
When you share your internet with others, your data (and balance) can finish quickly.
- Use data limit settings on your phone

Some feature phones or second-hand smartphones may trigger default browser usage or update systems in the background.
- Avoid using your SIM in unknown phones
