How does it benefit me to close the data in the background?

The way you will benefit from turning off background data is to avoid excessive mobile data consumption and prevent my phone from being so slow . You still have the option to  close all apps under these settings for Android and iOS phones. In this way you will have a little more control with your team when using it.

What does it mean to disable background data?

When you deactivate this option, it means that it is a way to ensure that none of the applications that you have installed on your phone will consume data in the background.  But you should also keep in mind that when you disable this option, some applications will not work optimally.

How to make the settings of the Apps in the background?

It is very easy, everything will depend on the phone you have, since sometimes in some of the mobile devices you can change one or another option when you want to search the settings on the phone for the configuration of some application . That is why I am going to explain how you can make the adjustments in both the Android and iOS operating systems.

Android operating system

  1. First you must go to the ‘Phone settings’
  2. Then you will select the ‘Applications’ option
  3. Then select Data usage and that is where you are going to deactivate the ‘Data in the background’, in this way the data consumption will be controlled more, so if there is an application that consumes the data more than normal, With this it will stop doing it.

However, with Android operating systems, you can also run many more features like turn off Wi-Fi data in the background and you can also enable WhatsApp floating window to watch videos in the background or any other content. That is why it is important that you know how to handle this operating system, so that you take advantage of each one of the options that it offers you.

iOS operating system

In the case of iOS phones, you can toggle the apps as if there are some apps that are suspended due to background data.

There will always be updates for these applications , so those that are disabled can check if there is an update available, so if you want to know how you can make suspended applications see if there are new updates, follow these steps:

  1. On your phone go to the ‘Settings’ option
  2. Then select the ‘General’ option
  3. Then select where it says ‘Background refresh’

How do I know what the background data is?

The data in the background is what each of the applications you have on your phone consumes, for example, if you have applications such as: WhatsApp, Instagram, Telegram, Facebook, among others, these are applications that consume data in the background, for that in case you disable the data in some of these applications, it may happen that they do not work in the correct way.

What applications should I not disable in the background?

What you can do is first visualize which are those applications that consume the most data in the background or which is the application that slows down your phone the most, and according to the results you get, you will see which is the application that you can’t disable.

Setting

  1. On your computer you are going to click on start, then select the ‘Settings’ option
  2. Then you are going to click on the ‘Applications’ option and then on ‘Applications and features’
  3. Then you go to search for the application and click on more options and then on advanced options
  4. In this option you will find the permissions that ask applications in the background, when you select the application to run in the background, you can select that the application always runs in the background or you can select the optimize option,which it means you will save more power, but you will still receive notification from the app.

Security Center

Here you can be aware of the security of each of the applications you have installed, since you can view their content. Also, since they run in the background and if there is something wrong with some of the applications, that is why it is always good that you keep them optimized, to avoid any problem with them.

With this option you can control how you want the applications to work, if you are activating the background in the ones you want, it will be up to you which one you want to run to work in the background or no
