Does anyone know of a "travel mode" or slow connectivity option for macOS or any 3rd party apps that could do that?

I'm pretty sure this doesn't exist as an OS feature, but wanted to put it up to the community. I commute on a daily basis and use a Wifi hotspot. It's perfect for browsing the internet and email, but I have iPhoto, Google Drive, updates, etc. all normally running in the background. Turning them off manually every time is a big waste of time, but it slows everything down and eats up data.

Thoughts?
