iOS 13 Podcasts app using GB of Cellular data

Today my phone when nuts downloading a whopping 18GB of podcast data while on cellular. It turns out that I got my new iPhone 11 Pro within days of my billing cycle. So the attached screenshot show that the podcasts app alone consumed ALL of my plan data. I only subscribe to 7 podcasts.


Is anyone else having this problem?


PS I turned off cellular data for podcasts to stop the bleeding!

Check the settings for your podcasts. If they are extremely large and/or you have it set to download a large number of episodes, this might make sense.
