Your Mobile Data Is Being Gobbled Up By These Apps



Darcy Jimenez



Some of the apps on your phone are a lot more data-hungry than others.

If you're not using WiFi, everything you do online on your phone has data costs — but some apps eat up far more of your precious megabytes than others.

Holafly used the My Data Manager app to test data usage across the most popular apps — on an iPhone 15 Pro Max and an Android Xiaomi Redmi 9 — and ranked the apps from most to least data-hungry.

YouTube consumes more mobile data than any other app tested, gobbling up 193 MB for every five minutes of typical use. The video sharing platform uses almost 29 percent more data than the second-ranking app overall, Disney+ (150 MB).

When it comes to social media apps, Snapchat (101 MB) is the worst offender, while Safari (56 MB) tops the list among mobile browsers.
