Synchronization

Can I limit the transferred amount of data?

Click the tool symbol to open the settings screen. You can set a data limit here.

Are pictures always transferred?

Click the tool symbol to open the settings screen. Here you can choose between syncing news and pictures or news only.

How much is the OTA synchronization?

This depends on the number of feeds you?ve subscribed to, the amount of transferred pictures (if any) and on your data plan. At best you should subscribe to a data plan with included traffic. For fully controlling your expenses, use an application which calculates your data traffic, for example ?Smaato Cost?.
