How much mobile data your favourite apps really use

WhatsApp

This results in a total of 14.4MB, which over 30 days would cover a user sending an average of 11 messages per day, and receiving an average of 45 messages per day.
They forgot that WhatsApp syncs all of your contacts (including those not on WhatsApp) every time you start it and every hour thereafter.
For 100 contacts this will be about 6MB a month.
 
I am sure the Facebook and Messenger apps use less than mentioned - they run in the background and pick up notifications. The Cisco source mentioned Facebook but didn't specify on a mobile, which makes all the difference
 
Facebook - Enter the Settings menu. Select Account Settings >> Videos and Photos
Videos and Photos - does not appear!

nah you are doing it wrong.
facebook enter settings. select account settings >> decativate account.

Boom life simpler.


but on a side note, do not get the facebook app. if you are going to be using the depression tool, at least use it in browser, then it does not force you to download facebook messanger just to read messages in the app.
