Hello 3Speak & Hive Community members,

With this post, I'll talk about saving mobile data when using 3Speak Mobile app.
[In my previous post](https://peakd.com/hive-181335/@sagarkothari88/3speak-mobile-app-tips-save-internet-bandwidth-by-changing-these-settings-when-youre-on-mobile-data), I explained how to save mobile data. This post is an extension to it.

## Why turn off auto play?

- 3Speak Mobile app starts autoplaying video as soon as you launch it.
- On top of that, any interaction you do, scroll - swipe, it would result into more data consumption.
- It is bad for those who are on mobile-data. It will drain their internet packs.

## Turn off AutoPlay

- To eliminate this issue, I've added a feature "AutoPlay Video" - On/Off.
- This was requested by @techcoderx as shown in the screenshot below.

## How does it look after turning off the AutoPlay?

- After turning off the AutoPlay. You'll no longer see in-line-players
- With that all videos which were being played in feed view, will be stopped.
- You'll only see thumbnails of the post in feed.
- In order to play video, you'll have to tap on it.
