Hi there Advicenators.
The last time I logged on here I was 21. Im almost 30 now. Wow I thought I was well put together at that time. I wasn’t. I was looking for validation in being right, or proving that I had the solutions to problems. I didn’t. It makes me think about all the times I went looking for answers online and who was on the other end of that answer. Was it someone like my 21 year old self who didn’t know anything? Be careful out there, friends, and I hope you get the answers you’re looking for.

This is urgent! I don't know how to stop devices on my cell from running all the time, and I'm using up tons of data! Can someone also please tell me why when I go to sleep my phone battery is fully charged and when I get up it's low battery even if I turn the power button off? I love listening to playlist.com's music. Does that use up lots of data too? Cuz I'm losing my GBs like crazy. Thanks! Btw I'm careful not to watch videos or listen to the radio online. What can I do not to use up so much data? your advice is really appreciated since this is a new phone, and I'm really confused. I would really appreciate if you can give me names of popular sites that use up a lot of data! (link)

Depending on what type of phone you have, you can turn the data off when you don't plan on using it. Look through your user manual or contact the manufacturer or your carrier for instructions.
Also, most smartphones have the ability to connect to wifi. Be sure you are connected to wifi whenever possible so you don't use up your data allowance.
Playlist.com is considered streaming and will use up your data and battery more quickly. As far as your battery dying when it's turned off, that may be a defective battery. I would talk to your carrier and see if they can better troubleshoot that problem. You can save battery life by killing apps running in the background, lower the screen brightness, and turn off location settings, to name a few. .
Popular sites that would use up data quickly are Pandora, Youtube, Netflix (anything that streams audio/video), any photo uploading to websites such as Facebook, Pinterest, etc. Also playing games that connect to the internet for an extended amount of time. Downloading a lot of apps can use up data, depending on the size.
I'm good with cell phones, you can message me for more information if you want to!
