Before we push into the First Randoli crush, should we toggle 4G or 5G and check remaining SIM data now, or will cell sites choke anyway. Not asking where to buy a top-up pack.

Check bars and remaining data before you are shoulder-to-shoulder. Toggle airplane mode once to refresh, prefer the band that shows steadier bars, and download any offline map now. Sites do choke later — early check still helps.

Screenshot your meeting pin while signal is decent. Screenshots beat a live map that will not load.

Save a tuk pickup landmark offline too — apps struggle when everyone leaves at once.
