Abstract
Implementations disclose transmission features for devices during low-bandwidth conditions. In some implementations, a method includes determining that a bandwidth on a network satisfies or will satisfy a low-bandwidth threshold and restricts or will restrict transmission of one or more information messages between the user and one or more entities associated with the one or more information messages. The method modifies transmission of the one or more information messages between the user and the one or more entities based on one or more social relationships between the user and the one or more entities.
