In this tutorial, we will show you how to disable uploading HD videos and photos on Facebook App. Social media addiction is something that is hard to let go of. We aren’t just talking about browsing feeds, but the uploading and sharing of moments with the friend circle is something that many of us have a habit of doing. Well, there’s no complaint about that, unless one has a restricted data plan. There is still a large userbase out there those who couldn’t reap in the benefits of an unlimited data plan, and that is completely understandable.

However, if you are using the Facebook app and are a frequent uploader on a limited data pack, then there is one important thing worth keeping in mind. Unknowing to you, all these uploads might be happening in Full HD quality. This for you might result in a couple of disadvantages. The first and more obvious one is the consumption of way too much internet (even more so in case of video uploads).

The next one is unnecessary battery drainage as well. Although there isn’t much difference, the battery juice will drain more in case you upload HD contents as compared with the normal ones. Fortunately, the social media giant has taken note of this. Facebook has baked in the feature to disable uploading HD videos and photos via its app. In this tutorial, we will show you how to do just that on both the Android and iOS platforms. So without further ado, let’s begin with the guide.
