Does siri use data if on a wifi network

does siri use data package if I'm on a wifi network?

I just was looking for this answer and found your question. I then found the answer... Apple made a BIG mistake and made it so shared photostreams are on cellular! See the quote from Apple below. It makes me think that using something like Everpix may be a better idea as you can control it to NOT use cellular, it is free to use for recent pics (like photostream), and I think it does have the same web and in app share features. My pics aren't up on it fully yet so I can't play with the share feature yet.
"Note: Shared photo streams work over Wi-Fi, Ethernet, and cellular networks. Cellular data charges may apply.
For more information about using Shared Photo Streams, click a help topic on the left."

HT1390 Does it use data to watch a rented movie from iTunes on IPad? Is it streaming or just downloaded?

Does it use data to watch a rented movie from iTunes on IPad? Is it streaming or just downloaded?

You must get the movie onto your iPad somehow. If you download it while on Wi-Fi you will not use cellular data. Once the movie has been downloaded you will not use cellular data or Wi-Fi.

When I am traveling out of area and purchase and view a movie does it use data against my cell phone service?

When I have purchased a movie for my iPad and I am traveling, does it use data?

Any sort of Internet activity of any type, to any site or service, will use cell data unless your iPad is connected to Wi-Fi. If, however, you mean that you purchase and download a movie, either through Wi-Fi or via your computer, and view it later, then no, once purchased and downloaded it will not require any further Internet traffic.

Does Facetime Use Data From You Data Plan?

Does Facetime Use Data From You Data Plan?
If so, what would be a good plan to use :200MB, 2 GB, or 2GB + Tethering?
Or Does it use up minutes?

Facetime uses wi-fi.

HT2729 If I sync a podcast to my itune does it use data to playback

If I sync a podcast to my itune does it use data to playback

If you sync the episodes downloaded to your computer over to the device then there is no need for 3G data usage, however if the podcast app is set up to check for new episodes it may refresh the feed, which could involve a tiny data transfer.

My iphone wifi data from the consolidated file shows more wifi networks than I have been exposed to. Does the iphone also collect location on wifi networks that are within reach of the wifi networks it has access to?

I took out the wifi location data from the consolidated file and plotted into google maps. Clearly, not all those wifi networks are in areas or really close to areas I've been to, yet somewhat close. Does it mean that if I am within a range of a wifi network my iphone will not only collect location data of that particular wifi network but also all others that are within reach of that wifi network and so forth?

Does ODBC encrypts data while passing through the network?

Does ODBC encrypts data while passing through the network?

ODBC uses the underlying Oracle networking components to transmit data. By default, these components do not encrypt data, although they can be made to do so-- see the "SSL Encryption" thread from a few days ago.

Does imessage use data when not in a wifi conection?

how does imessage send a message? does it use the phone signal and send like a normal text message, or does it use the #g network and wifi conection? if it uses the 3g network how much data does it use?

It uses your data/wifi
Your phone knows when to switch from imessage to sms message because it knows when your texting whether or not the recipient has iOS5 or not if it does the bubbles will be blue(Data/WIFI) if is a regular text it will be green(TXT) hope this helps

Does Siri only work when connected to WiFi

Does Siri only work when you are connected to a Wifi? Mine does not seem to work through the 4G cell network.

It works over WiFi or cellular.
If you are using 4G cell network, are you using something like a Verizon MiFi 4510L to create a hotspot that your iPhone 4S is using?
There are other issues with Siri that are going on - perhaps that is what you are seeing?

Does iMessage use data?

I was just wondering if iMessage uses data when you are on the 3G network? And if it does, does anyone know how much data?

iMessage would use data when not connected to a WiFi network, but should use WiFi if it is connected as that is how it would work with the iPod Touch and iPad (non 3g) models.

Does FaceTime use data or cellular?

Wanted to know if using FaceTime on a device does it count against the data share plan or uses unlimited minutes? If it uses data how do we know how much data is used per minute? I am using Verizon's broadband fusion and want to manage my data appropriately but need to know how to figure FaceTime use age.

When my daughter uses her I-phn on our home wirless network does it still use data from our data plan? Thanks.

No. As long as she's connected to WiFi, no cellular data is being used.
