consuming 3G data

consuming 3G data

Hello,

I have installed tbe preview version for Android on my s3. I have configured it not to use 2G/3G for streaming or snchronizing. However, I have found that spotify has consumed about 60 Mb of data.

Have I missconfigured something?

Appart from this, the Android version is great!! Good job!

Hello,

As far as I am aware, the setting in the menu will only restrict syncing tracks over 2G/3G.

I've also popped your message over to the Android board - The Contribution board is more discussion about this Community.

Hi R.

 

A possible solution for you would be to install the battery saver app called JuiceDefender...

While helping you make your battery last longer, it also has a feature to automatically turn off  2G/3G data while you are connected to Wi-Fi.

I raised this with the beta and it hasn't been fixed http://community.spotify.com/t5/Mobile-Android/Preview-beta-release-app-using-a-LOT-of-data-on-3G/td...

Only 'solution' is to used Offline mode while on mobile data
