Huge data communication (> 10 GB in a few hours) #131

Closed benoitdevos closed 3 years ago

benoitdevos commented 3 years ago

On saturday 16th, Coronalert Android app basically used all my monthly plan, i.e. 13.72 GB out of 15, in a few hours. At that moment my network supplier suspended my 4G connection - so I suspect it would have been much worse. You will find hereafter a screenshot of the standard Android data usage report.

Please note that Coronalert is also listed at the top my WIFI data consumption app list, with a lower, but still high, amount of data: 734 MB out of 2.97 GB.

Perhaps a setting to only use wifi could be useful (and also decreasing the data usage)

Such a setting already exist. I discovered it too late.

seems to be the same issue I encountered #130

I'm sorry for that. Which version do you have ? An issue that could explains higher data consomption was fixed with 1.11.2

dronzal commented 3 years ago

@leroynicolasalexi, in my case (#130), the issue occured when app was already updated to 1.11.2
