The Pexels app is a great app, but my only issue with It is the Auto Play feature on videos. It can't be turned off, and because of that, the videos play by themselves and I spend so much mobile data whenever I want to download video clips. I might end up using over 4GB worth of mobile data just to download videos that are less than 400MB all together. Doesn't make any sense. I'd appreciate if it is fixed as soon as possible.

I have tried to pay three different artists for their photos and paypal keeps sending me text verification codes and not accepting the code when entered to submit for payment, I don't know if these three artists have been paid for their photos or not. i guess technically it's not a pexels issue.But since paypal is the only payment option associated with your app, that is where the fault lies.

I have given a 5 star review before and Pexels is still doing great. I only noticed it's data consuming. Like when you search a particular video, all the search results play/download automatically? I search and download a video which is less than 20mb but I have lost almost 500mb of data. please can this be looked into? some of us live in countries where data is very expensive
