How much mobile data does the SKY GO App use?
Mobile data use will fluctuate based on the quality of your internet connection and varies from 160 MB per hour for the lowest connection speed up to 700 MB per hour for the highest quality video stream.

Mobile data use also depends on the video quality setting that you choose in the app and whether you're connected to WiFi or 3G.
