Can I track data usage?

Is there a way to determine which apps are using data?
Or, for example, if I have used 20 MB of data today, which apps used that data, and how much per app?
Thanks

Yes -- Settings > Cellular > Use Cellular Data For shows data usage by app and you can also click on "System Services" at bottom of that list to see details of system services. Information is since you last reset the data which you can do at anytime at the bottom of that screen.

    Can anyone explain data usage for streaming music like Pandora

    According to Pandora when you're using it on your phone it uses 64 kbps or roughly 28 MB per hour roughly 36 hours of use to use 1 GB. I'm not sure if the Premium version is the same bitrate.

    What is considered Data in a Data Plan and how can I reduce data usage?

    All the above, if u want to reduce try having your phone on wifi when you can like at home.  Also setting your major downloads only when you connec to wifi like updates etc

  • How can you manage data usage when cellular data is off, but you are using WiFi where your WiFi provider charges for data use?

    I spend quite a few months each year in Canada where I use a Telus Cellular Hub device which is also my WiFi Router.  My iPhone 5 has Cellular Data set to "Off" which insures I won't be charged via my Verizon Wireless Service Provider for charges while in Canada.  Trouble is Telus, Rogers and all the Canadian Internet Providers charge for all Data going through their Systems.  Again, My Cellular Data on the iPhone 5 is turned off, but I use WiFi for such things as checking the Weather, or FaceBook, or searching the Web. 
    I believe that things may be happening in the background from various Apps that use quite a lot of Data.  It could be that iCloud is part of the issue with things being backed up automatically.  It also could be that Apps like AP or other News Apps are sending large amounts of Data in the photos associated with their New Stories, etc.  I typically turn off the App Store "Updates" such that they don't automatically load.  The FaceBook works now posted videos play when you are just scrolling through the News Feed. 
    I have been trying to fine an article somewhere which focuses on this specific problem but unfortunately many if not most articles are about folks worried about using Cellular Data while in a WiFi environment when their Cellular Data is turned on. 
    Does anyone know of a fairly comprehensive article about what settings on which Apps might reduce the Data Usage when Cellular Data is turned "Off" but you are going through a Service Provider who charges for all Data Accessed even when you are using WiFi?

    Thanks for your comments, it is clear you understand my plight.  The trouble is fully understanding what Apps and App Features are transferring data in the background any time you happen to turn WiFi to on (even if you have had it off most of the day or night).  Obviously things like Location Services can constantly be sending and receiving data from my iPhone without any action on my part.  Also if you have things like photo backup on the iCloud then each time you take a photo you are sending a copy out.  All App Updates if set to Automatic also can add up to quite a bit of Data.  Reading the News on AP or scrolling through FB News Feed is actually adding up to a lot of Data.  There could be other culprits that I am not even thinking of.  I don't want to turn Apps like Find My Phone off or turn iCloud off due to loosing the value of such a program entirely.  Again thanks for your quick response. 

  • Can't find data usage for last 6 months in Analyze My Plan

    I have accounts with Spring and Verizon.  On the Sprint account page, I can easily see my data usage for the last 12 months, both on system data and roaming data (I have been notified of exceeding the monthly roaming data cap).
    On the My Verizon website, I can see the last 6-months of Overview billing, but when I click on the data usage, it says there is no data available.
    Where can I see the last 12 months of my data usage for my MiFi device?

    Only 90 day?  that seems a mere pittance in the days of NSA data collection.  My Sprint account shows me on system and roaming data for the last 12 months.  I can't ascertain any seasonal trends to my data use with only 90 days.  I'm sure you are collecting and saving more than 90 days--common, its just a programming change to show more data.  Even my utilitiy bills show me that last 12 months of usage.  Please consider revising your website to display the last 12 months of on system, roaming, and total data usage.  Thank you.
    Your bills which are available for 18 months show the total usage amount for the billing cycle of each bill.

  • APP TO TRACK DATA USAGE FROM EACH APP

    Guys, i am experiencing the same. My data package got over, and i took time to recharge ( 4 days). And during these 4 days, my phone battery was amazing, i used to charge it once in 2 days.
    Im sure there is some app that uses data extensively that screws our battery.
    When i connected to wifi , i noticed the battery getting low as well.
    If only APPLE was smart enough, to create some software that tells us, that its using this much amount of data and at what time, then this battery issue will be resolved.
    But that wont happen, because then they wont be a lot of free too good to be true free apps, which collects data and whatsoever without we know.
    Until then, enjoy your life with a USB cable in your pocket and a car charger is your car, to charge it thrice a day.
    Thanks.

    Dear Diesel , As mentioned earlier if APPLE was smart , but it seems there are smarter people creating paid apps for the same.
    Nevertheless , my point in reference to APPLE, is they should create an option in the iOS , similar to the cellular data usage.
    SETTINGS>GENERAL>USAGE>CELLULAR USAGE
    If this is taken note of seriously by APPLE, then only we could have a greater battery life.
    Hope you got a clear picture now.

  • Tracking Data Usage

    I've been keeping an eye on my data usage, trying to make sure my wife and I don't go over our limited 2gb per month. Neither of us stream videos or games or use youtube very heavily, but I'm still seeing peaks throughout the day on each of our cell phones of over 3,000 kb, sometimes over 12,000kb. Any ideas on what could use this amount of data or more at one time? We do have a few smaller games on our phones (Candy Crush and Songpop), could these games be using that much data at one time if played for an extended period of time?

        Hello jblakey102. I'm happy to see that you're checking on your data usage closely. Your phone will default to connect to your WiFi if you have WiFi turned on in your phone's settings and have already saved your WiFi's log in information. Keep in mind that it may take a few moments for your phone to successfully connect to the WiFi once it's in range, so there may be some data used during the crossover or if your WiFi signal is weak or unavailable. What model phone do you have? Many phones offer the ability to turn off mobile data. This is a great way to ensure your phone is only using WiFi, but you would need to turn it back on to send or receive a picture message or to get data service when out of range.
    Thank you

  • Track iPhone based on data usage

    Is there any way to see where an iPhone last connected to the internet?
    My iPhone was stolen and I'm trying to find it. I can see the data usage on my AT&T account after the time of the theft, is there a way to find where it connected at?

    If you didn't enable the Find my Phone feature on your phone, there's no way to track it.  Call AT&T and make sure you report the phone stolen so your account can be deactivated.

  • How do I keep track of data usage on the iPhone 5C?

    I just purchased an iPhone 5C (my first smartphone), and I'm confused as to what exactly the GB information in the "Usage" menu under Settings-->General-->Usage means. Are those gigs that are listed how much I have used and available for storage ONLY, or does it also include LTE data usage? I just synced my phone with my iTunes library on my computer, and my "GB used" jumped from 1.0 to 6.3 GB. It seems to be under the heading "storage" and says I still have 7.0 GB available, so I'm inclined to think that it is only counting what I am actually storing on my phone, but if that is the case, then where can I check how much of my data for the month I have used? I am on a family plan, so I want to make sure I'm not accidentally driving our usage up. My Wifi connection at home is currently out, so I know I was using some LTE this morning, but I don't think it was very much. I figured out how to turn off LTE and 3G so I'm not accidentally using data now, but in any case, does anybody know where I can find my data usage info on my phone?
    Thanks!

    Under the Collection button you can add as many collections as you want. 
    I created one called "Reading".  I then move the book(s) I am reading into that collection so I can just go to there to find my current books.
    I also created one called "Complete" so I can remember which ones I can uncheck from iTunes. 

  • How can I find out my data usage for the past 3 months?

    Greetings all, I have been a long time Verizon customer, and as such I, along with my husband, was grandfathered into the unlimited data plan. When I last spoke to a representative, they informed me that the only way we were going to be able to keep our unlimited data was by paying the full retail price ($600+) to get a new phone. So we were considering upgrading and changing to one of the newer data plans so we could still get the discounted price on the new phone, but I would like to make sure I choose one with enough data, without paying for a bunch of data that I don't use, however MyVerizon only shows me the amount I have used since the start of the billing cycle. Is there a way to find out the data usage for both my husband and myself for the last 3 months so I can choose the right option?
    Thanks in advance for your help!

        Hello sweetpea1221! How exciting that you're considering upgrading with us. mrhelper is helpful, indeed. You can view your data usage for each line under the View Bill option via your My Verizon account. You can also view your 3 month average  data usage with our Account Analysis feature. Here's a link that will be helpful in doing so http://bit.ly/vnLjqO. I'm confident that we have a great plan to match your data needs. Please let us know if you have further questions.

  • Can you help me re: data usage?

    Can anyone tell me why I cannot get data usage at this time? I have removed sim card and put it back but to no avail. Where can I fine data usage online?

        That is definitely strange, twitterbird. Are you referring to data usage through your My Verizon App? Does it just not update, or does it state that the info is not available? Have you tried accessing this information directly through the website?

  • Who's tracking the trackers with data usage?

    Hello - I was just wondering if there was a type of software or service that could be installed on your devise that accurately tracks data usage? With all the posts about overuse charges, and unexpected crazy bills if there was a way to verify the usage outside of any tools that verizon provides and being forced to take their word for it.

    Android phones running ICS or JB have this capability built in; there also are apps in Google Play for Androids (such as Onavo Count).
    My experience is that my phone and my installed Onavo Count track quite well with what's reported on my MyVerizon account's data usage.
    Onavo Count is available for iPhones, and Windows Phones have Data Sense to track data usage.

  • Is there an app to track internet usage of other apps?

    I know you can check your overall usage from your phone. But is there an app which tracks how much I use on specific apps, GPS, Safari, Youtube etc.?

    There are some apps in the app store that track data usage, but I don't believe they can track by app, only whether it's cellular data or WiFi. But do a search anyway.
