I have noticed in the last couple months that Spotify has been eating up my data like no other app on my Samsung s6. I never stream music using data because I either listen on WiFi or download music for listening offline, so imagine my surprise when I looked at my data usage and found that Spotify has chewed up 300Mb of my 2Gb/month data plan. All of the data used is foreground data, but I restricted background data anyways thinking it would help. The next month I payed special attention to make sure I was connected to WiFi before streaming music, but it was to no avail as Spotify again used 250Mb of data for no apparent reason. I am completely baffled and upset that spotify is using my precious data when I am 100% sure I am using WiFi or playing downloaded music. Any advice or solutions to this problem would be appreciated.
Edit: Just checked my data usage and not even two days into my cycle and spotify has already used 11Mb of data.
