How many Mb consumes a call with Viber or WhatsApp


Hello World,
Recently there is the possibility of being able to make free calls through Whatsapp
These phone calls are free for all, but still consume part of your band data
But in reality how much consumes, in terms of Mb, make a phone Voip?

Sending messages, video and photographs also calls Voip affect the amount of data traffic that you have available on your mobile, maybe with a subscription.
The most popular tools used for calls with the Internet are definitely WhatsApp and Viber that consuming data equally.



The study of the consumption data of a phone Voip can be done with the "Usage Data" present on all Android devices
This tool allows us to observe the general consumption data, set a threshold to stay within a certain consumption in terms of megabytes and monitor a particular application, to understand how much bandwidth is absorbing



By performing the measurement with WhatsApp and Viber, shows that a call Voip lasting about one minute consumes around the 0.50 Mb (About 500 Kb)
From the image the value does not start from 0 because obviously the consumption of a particular app, in this case Whatsapp, is also determined by the sending of messages.
You may notice that starting from 9,59 Mb you arrive at 10.18 Mb with one call via Whatsapp by a minute



From small test we understand that a call by a minute of WhatsApp and Viber (Generally all services Voip) consumes about 500 Kb.
This means that if we hold on the phone for 10 minutes to half an hour will consume 5 Mb to 15 Mb
Consumption rather content considered subscriptions and tariff plans possible from 1-2 Gb
