Low Data mode error shows that it is on, however it is off

Hello, this issue was presented about 2 years ago, and I am bringing it up again.

When downloading files, apps, or updates I get this 'Low Data Mode is on' error message.


When I go to the cellular setting, the switch for Low Data Mode is actually turned off.

I also checked my wifi connection and it is turned off.

I also checked my setting on my iPad, and it is also off.


Is this a bug in the IOS system on my iPhone 8 Plus, or what?


Thank you in advance for helping my solve this annoying problem.

Hello tneal007,


Thanks for asking the Apple Support Communities about the Low Data Mode alert despite it being off. We're happy to help.


Please start with this process: Use Low Data Mode on your iPhone and iPad - Apple Support


  1. Turn Low Date Mode on.
  2. Restart the device: Restart your iPhone - Apple Support
  3. Go back in and turn Low Data Mode back off.
  4. Restart once more, and test.


If the issues remain, please contact Apple Suppor : Contact - Official Apple Support


Cheers.
