This has only started recently, less than a week. My battery is just getting its ass kicked.
My day to day is work, on WiFi, always full barrs Sunday - Sunday. I stopped spectrum mobile from gps location yada yada but it doesn’t do anything or help.

Spectrum is so bad bro. The line is $40/mo for a 50GB data cap.
US Mobile is $34/mo (when you pay for the year up front) and includes 100GB of QCI 8 data on Verizon and then truly unlimted data @ 1Mbps. They support AT&T (darkstar), T-Mobile (GSM), and Verizon (warp) and if you activate via eSIM, you can change them at any time. So if you’re going on a trip and you don’t get service with Darkstar, you can swap to Warp for the weekend if you want.
I’ve been using them for about a year now and they’re badass. I pay $96/yr (I pay up front) for service. Only includes 2GB of data, but I’m home or at work all the time, so it’s not been an issue. Everything else is unlimited.
I pay 5.99€/month for unlimited voice and SMS, plus 200gb/month. 4G only, no 5G, but who cares.
For a little bit more (9.99€ without shopping for offers) you get unlimited* data on 5G too.
But in my mind that way too expensive.
Non-US. JFC.
What is your carrier? We don’t have unlimited data here, I pay 9 USD per 6 months for total 50 GB, no calls, no SMS.
Kena Mobile, a low cost operator of TIM. Its a “welcome back” offer after I had switched to a different operator, they offered back this which was cheaper and better coverage in my area.
This is for US-specific carriers. As much as we’d love to have such low cost data, that’s just not a reality here.
I don’t pay 40 a month lmao. I pay $60 for two lines on spectrum both with 30gb cap and 2g if you go over that cap (I’ve never gone over once). Nothing comes close to spectrum here. Even boost mobile for the same plan is $60 a month per line. Verizon is almost double. And I’m not about getting contracted up. I’ve had spectrum mobile since it first came out and I’ve had 0 issues. Either my phone is shit or this app updated to a broken version draining my battery. My wife has an iPhone and is not effected at all. I see no logical reason to drop my carrier at all.
Verizon is less, with no contract.

“Typical 4G LTE & 5G download speeds are 9-149 Mbps. Video streams in SD. In times of traffic, your data may be temporarily slower than other traffic.” no thanks
So does spectrum
They have a plan for not much more that included priority data.
laughs in Mint Mobile
My wife is on Visible (Verizon mvno) for a whopping $35/mo with no cap.
Never heard of or have that here. Sounds cool though
You don’t have T-Mobile or Verizon in your area? You’re on Spectrum, which uses Verizon towers. Visible is owned by Verizon, and is arguably a better deal, especially if you pay annually. Mint Mobile is owned by T-Mobile; T-Mobile is right behind Verizon for coverage.
As someone who had the displeasure of having Spectrum internet for almost 5 years, I would strongly suggest leaving that shithole company in the dust.
verizon is trash dude, no one would pay those prices and be contracted. Verizon is starting at $65 a line at its “unlimited welcome” plan. the 30gb plan is $80 and the50gb is $90. t-mobile is just as bad if not worse. with 50gb STARTING at 90 a month with the next tier up is 150 a month. its fucking garbage dude. i don’t understand how people on this site cant be like “oh…idk man maybe this dude looked at all the options before buying a phone plan and might have picked the best option in their area” how is that a hard concept to grasp? good lord, i just want help with an app dude im not going to change my plan to some shit, expensive garbage.

and that uses SHARED DATA dude. like wtf no that’s shit.
The stupidity continues, I see.
You specifically said nothing comes close to Spectrum, and I post something that’s $2 cheaper for the exact same service. Both plans are 2 lines, both plans have 100GB of full speed data between 2 lines, and both have unlimited QCI 8/7 data after your 50GB per line (which is the same as your current plan), with unlimited talk and text. It’s literally ATT, T-Mobile, or Verizon (you can literally choose which carrier you want, and can even switch them every day).
I posted to literally refute your first statement (which I did–completely) and every correspondence back and forth that we’ve had since then has been you misunderstanding something one way or another. You need to go back to school. This is honestly so embarrassing for you.
But it’s not same serivce. It’s $2 cheaper, favors iPhones, has shared data, and that rate is for only 6 months then spikes up. It’s like you just googled a plan, screen shotted it, didn’t read anything else and then thought I wouldn’t look at it. So even if we split the data then we’d lose 5gb each per month. You sent me a shitty ass plan dude
Verizon is 90 per line. T mobile is 90 per line. Both are 150 for 50gh per line. Zip codes matter dude.
It’s the _exact same service, favors no specific phone over another, has a shared data pool so one user can use 100GB in a month if the other uses none, and the price is locked in by paying yearly.
I’m on this plan and I’ve professionally sold phones for over a decade. It’s almost like you just googled a plan, and started talking shit about it without even knowing what you’re talking about.
You continue to be hands down the dumbest person I’ve found on lemmy since coming here. You’re inventing shit up out of thin air to make it seem like a bad plan when it’s LITERALLY (again, literally, not figuratively) the same service you have right now. Both Spectrum and US Mobile are MVNO and RESELL Verizon’s service as a third party. It’s the same fucking service you have at this exact second for slightly cheaper, much more flexible, and completely fixes the issue that you made this thread about to begin with.
I really hope you find the time to fix yourself in the future because your personality is dog shit.
That costs more than what I pay though. Like that is double what I pay lol.
And this is $58 for 2 lines… I literally sent you a picture man… Jesus.
You get reduced speeds at 50 GB, down to basically dial-up speeds. US Mobile’s data cap isn’t until 100GB, and you still get 1Mbps after the cap…
You get double the data for the same price, for the same 2 phones… I’m begging you to read man.
Okay so you want me to save 2 whole dollars by switching to what exactly? Google Fi? Idk what the fuck you’re showing me dude it’s a screen shot of random shit that might not even be available in my area.
I’ve been on Lemmy for like 3 weeks, and you’re the dumbest person I’ve met so far. There should be like, an award.
The best part is you don’t even understand it.
