On the iPhone, go to the Setting tab and select the Data and Storage option. On this page, you will see various options for monitoring and controlling Telegram consumption data.

Disable automatic download of media files
The Automatic Media Download section on the Data and Storage page is where you can automate the download of media files based on phone data usage, Wi-Fi, and roaming (Android only). To save on Internet usage, it is best to disable auto-download. If you are a member of many Telegram channels and groups, we recommend that you configure your Internet usage settings after installing Telegram; Because if auto-download is enabled, in addition to consuming a lot of internet in the background, your device’s memory will fill up quickly.
In Android to disable automatic download of all types of media, disable the When using mobile data, When using Wi-Fi and When roaming options so that media files while using the phone data, Wi-Fi or roaming can not be downloaded automatically.

Disable auto-download on iPhone to select all types of media After selecting Using Cellular or Using Wi-Fi , turn off Auto-Download Media so that media files when using the phone or Wi-Fi data can not be downloaded automatically.

Fortunately, due to Telegram’s extraordinary flexibility, users can select the files they would like to download automatically. For example, on Android, tap When using mobile data, and on iPhone, tap Using Cellular, to display more options after activating Auto-Download Media. In the Data Usage section, you can set the amount of data usage to the following three modes:
- Low: Images are downloaded in all chats, but videos and files will not be downloaded.
- Medium: All images, and videos up to 10 MB and files up to 1 MB will be downloaded to all chats.
- High: All images, and videos up to 15 MB and files up to 3 MB will be downloaded to all chats.

The above options can be customized in the Types of media section. In the Types of media section, you can specify which files (Photos, Videos, and Files) you want to download automatically. If you change this option manually, a new option called Custom will be added to the Data Usage section. Note that since voicemails are small, they are always downloaded automatically.

Telegram has a high performance in configuring various settings. One of the useful settings of Telegram is the precise setting of volume consumption management, which allows the user to set a volume limit for any type of file in any chat so that if the file size is more than the specified value, the download will not take place. By tapping on any of the Photos, Videos, and Files options, you can select which of the Contacts, Group Chats, Private Chats, and Channels chats to download automatically. In the Types of media section to customize the Videos and Files options, you can manually specify the maximum downloadable volume for automatic video and file downloads.
You can do the same for the two options When using Wi-Fi and When roaming.
Reduce data consumption when calling
By reducing data consumption during telegram calls, you can save on Internet usage. To do this, from the Calls section on the Data and Storage page, enable the Less data for calls option on Android and Use less data for calls on iPhone. In the Android version of Telegram, you have to choose which type of connection to use less data in calls. Select Always to save more. Enabling this option will give you a better calling experience when you have a poor internet connection, But keep in mind that the sound quality will drop a bit.
