JAKARTA Just like other music streaming applications, the use of Spotify data will depend on the quality of the streaming used. The higher the quality, the greater the data released.

Quoting from Makeuseof, Spotify has four voice quality options, namely Low, Normal, High, and Very High. In addition, there are automata options that make streaming quality dependent on the network connections used. Low quality will spend 10.8MB each hour so Spotify takes up to 92.5 hours of usage to reach 1GB. In contrast to the low quality that spends 43.2MB per hour and a high of 72MB per hour. As the highest streaming quality, the Very High option will certainly spend more data. When using this quality, Spotify will spend 144MB each hour. Within 6.9 hours, this streaming app can spend 1GB. When compared to the highest streaming quality on Apple Music and YouTube Music, Spotify spends up to more data. These two applications only spend 115.2MB per hour and require 8.6 hours to reach 1GB. However, not everyone can use Very High Quality. If you are a free Spotify user, you can only use high quality that consumes 72MB per hour. The use of this data is certainly much lower than the other two applications.

Spotify is a good enough alternative to data saving. Even when you use the lowest quality, Spotify is still saving because Apple Music requires 28.8MB per hour and YouTube Music requires 21.6MB per hour. This comparison is very helpful if you use cellular data and are saving data. If you are interested in using other streaming apps, you can know which quality is less in releasing data.
