How can I stop Facebook to autoplay videos and using all my data plan?
You may have noticed that recently Facebook started auto playing videos. It’s annoying at best when you are on your computer or tablet at home, it can get downright expensive when viewed on your mobile phone, especially if you have a limited data plan.
Videos are a huge drain on your data plan and could easily put you over your limit and incurring additional and substantial costs
You cannot stop Facebook to autoplay videos but on your IPhone you can tell Facebook to only auto-play only when you are connected to a WiFi network and stop draining your data plan
On your IPhone:
- go to “Settings”
- scroll down to Facebook
- click on Facebook
- click on settings
- push the slider “Auto-play on Wifi only”
Share with your friends
