So, I tried searching this forum and found nothing...

However, this is the problem I am having, I am trying to download Facebook for Android and the Weather Channel app...

Both are around 1-2 megs in size (easy enough for LTE which has 10 MB down eh?), and yet both of the programs stat that the Download Size Requires Wi-Fi....

Is there a way to override this?

N.M. I fixed it, feel free to delete this post mods.

The data saver was turned on which limits downloading to wifi.

Just turn off Data Saver under Battery and Data Manager in Settings. =)
