Just for safety’s sake, you shouldn’t be trying to find anything in Google Maps while driving. We’ll assume you’d like to know these hacks and that’s what drove you to this blog in the first place. While Google Maps doesn’t use a ton of data, there are still ways to make it use even less. But if saving data (& money) really gets your motor running, keep reading.Īt Mint Mobile, we really like saving you money, and one way of doing that is by helping you reduce your data usage anywhere you can (including while watching videos on YouTube, streaming music on Spotify, making FaceTime calls, and uploading TikToks…all of which you should NOT be doing while behind the wheel).

That means one hour of listening to directions from the app uses as much data as listening to a couple of 3 minute songs on Spotify (maybe try headbanging to Google Maps directions instead?). It’s estimated that Google Maps eats up about 3 – 5 MB of data per hour of use. The good news is Google Maps actually uses significantly less mobile data than some of the other apps you probably open every day.
