How to save data watching DStv channels on your phone

The DStv mobile app has a feature that you can use to save data by setting the maximum video quality. If you do not have an issue with data consumption and expenses, you can watch video in full HD quality, with your data usage coming to about 2.3 GB per hour.

However, there are four other settings you can choose to keep your data usage within limits. The lowest option will give you 216P quality video and limit your data consumption to about 100MB per hour.

  1. Launch the DStv App and tap More in the bottom right of the screen.
  2. On the next page, select Settings.
  3. Scroll down till you see Maximum Video Quality, and then select that.
  4. You will be presented with options of video quality to choose from. Pick whichever you prefer. The selection menu will close, and you can go back to the app’s main page to start watching shows and movies.

Enjoy watching your favourite DStv shows and channels on the go.
