Staying connected with encryptSIM means secure, unthrottled data access, but optimizing your usage can help extend your data plan. Here’s how to minimize unnecessary data consumption on your iOS device.

Enable Low Data Mode

‍

‍

Apple’s Low Data Mode, available on iOS 13 and later, helps limit background data usage while keeping essential functions running.

‍

How to enable Low Data Mode:

1. Go to Settings > Cellular (or Mobile Data).

2. Select your encryptSIM eSIM.

3. Tap Data Mode.

4. Enable Low Data Mode.

‍

What this does:

• Pauses automatic app updates.

• Reduces background activity.

• Limits system data usage.

‍

Disable Wi-Fi Assist and iCloud Backup

‍

Wi-Fi Assist automatically switches to cellular data when Wi-Fi is weak, leading to unintended data usage. iCloud Backup syncs over mobile data, which can quickly consume large amounts of data.

‍

To turn these off and save data:

1. Go to Settings > Cellular (or Mobile Data).

2. Scroll down and toggle off Wi-Fi Assist.

3. Disable iCloud Backup over cellular.

‍

Bonus tip: Restrict background app refresh to Wi-Fi only.

‍

Go to Settings > General > Background App Refresh and set it to Wi-Fi Only.

‍

Making these adjustments, you can maximize your encryptSIM data plan while staying connected securely.
