    notice that whenever you have a game the app will send you a notification. this means that the game is constantly using push-method to stay up-to-date. It is probably pushing every 1 or 2 minutes, which in the end will use a lot of MB

    best thing is to uninstall i think if you dont have unlimited plan or wifi

    What do you mean "whenever you have a game"? Like, any game app on the phone? Or a live match in T11?

    No other app or game does this. They all send push notifications, but only when there is an event: like something is ready to be harvested or someone is attacking you. T11, too, sends push notifications: 15 minutes before a game, when the game is starting, and sometimes after the game (I guess if you were not watching live).

    If they are also sending silent notifications throughout the day "to stay up to-date", that's terrible design. But I don't think it's the case.

    It has been established more or less conclusively that most data is used up during the app startup. Like the app wants to download all there is to know about every team and every match on the server. Watching a live game actually does not use hardly any data at all.

    I don't know what you are basing your opinion or advice on, but I think you are way off. T11 has to acknowledge the issue and start fixing it.

    I am not going to uninstall, as my 20 Gb plan will cover even this wasteful use of data, but for peace of mind and for other people who are on 2-5 Gb plans I want this addressed ASAP.

    This is totally wrong. Android apps don't work that way, if you close the app (pressing the back button) the app stays closed and is not consuming anything, as long as it's not meant to stay open in the background (and Top Eleven is not meant to be).

    The game is not "constantly using anything to stay up-to-date". It only wakes up for a second to send you the notification if you have them activated. This is far away from consuming data or battery.
