With that said, however, some users reported that the app has taken too much of their data. The occurrence is a common thing, especially for those taking calls on their mobile phones with no WiFi or on their desktop PCs using mobile hotspots. One user on Reddit complains that their daily data usage for Microsoft Teams is ruining his pocket due to limited data since everyone on the calls has their cameras turned on. Telling them to turn their cameras off is also not a good option. So, what’s the workaround? We can try blocking incoming videos. This way, other participants can still see each other’s faces, but we can’t. In the long run, we can also save a lot of data. If you could relate to this situation, then this article is for you.
How to limit data usage on Microsoft Teams
- During the meeting, click More actions (the three dots on top of your screen).
- Click Turn off incoming videos. In other news, Microsoft announced that it would shut down Teams Free (Classic), starting April 12, 2023. With that said, you have to either pay to move your data or remain on the free tier. Do you find these tips helpful? Let us know in the comments!
