Pokemon Go has finally been released in Japan.

It's only been released for about a week, but
I can already see people playing it everywhere.
I also started a few days ago. funny. . .
I play Kurarowa, Kurakura, Puzzle and Dragons, and Shironeko, and
I also watch the internet and YouTube while commuting...huh?

Is the packet communication amount okay?
I think I went for the cheapest 2GB plan. . .

tragedy

Gege! ? Communication restrictions are terrible! ! !

 

I can't even use the internet anymore. 128kbps slow.

By the way, in my usage, the amount of internet traffic was by far the highest.

1GB just for the internet...! ?

Is the 2GB limit unreasonable in this era of social gaming?
If only we could reduce internet communication somehow...!
No, there are still ways to do it!

That's it...this is it!

Opera Max (Google Store)

It's amazing that you can save a lot of packet communication just by installing it.
Moreover, it is made by Opera, which is famous for its web browser.
Opera was also installed on Nintendo DS in the past.

How to use

First, install it from
Google Store

When you open the app, a welcome screen will appear; swipe to the right to agree to the terms. (Please read the terms carefully)

Tap “Connect” under “To the cloud”

Tap "OK" for "Connection Request"

Allows access to usage history.

And that's all you need. If you have an app that supports it, it will automatically save on communication.
*Please note that social games like Pokemon GO often use encrypted communications, so not all communications will be perfectly saved!

The way this app works is that it creates a VPN connection between the Opera Max cloud server and the Opera Max app, and
it seems that you can save money by compressing data communication for each app through the above route.

You can also manage data usage for each app and the savings results with this app.

It's convenient because you can also configure settings for each app.

I've just started using it myself, so I'd like to see how effective it is.
That's it for now!
