Feature description

Currently we can either have sections of comments, video suggestions, meta info on or off. This means that users will have not have a way to a more refined approach to save data consumption. In order to achive this, we can introduce an option to "Tap to Show" to selectively choose a response. This function will only load such info on demand and when required instead of current implementation where we can either choose to load them or turn them off completely.

Why do you want this feature?

Do understand here that these little things can occupie good amount of data consumption over a long period of time as they also include graphical representations of thumbnails for profiles pictures to videos along and not to mention about how long a creator description can become from as simple as "Like, share and subscribe!" to many advertising links and so on.

This simple change can help towards achiving a more fine tuned way to this issue and can become an extra feature of the app.

So instead of toggles, you'd have to choose between 3 radio buttons, like:

• Show comments
• Fetch/load comments on tapping
• Don't fetch comments

Yes, basically this could become an on off switch to selectively load comments, video suggections or creator info section.
