    We want the option that says "Download via WiFi only"
    .
    Underneath it says, "To reduce operator data charges, don't download over mobile networks". It is a clear warning, telling us that we will save money if we only download over WiFi. Sometimes we may not be able to do that, and we'll need to download over mobile networks. We can see it is currently on because the box is blue with a white check mark inside. To turn it off, press down on the box.
