How can i determine how much data an app is using

on an iphone5, how can i determine how much data an app is using and or which apps are the biggest data users? do all apps always use wifi when a wifi is connected or do some apps still use cellular data even if wifi is connected?

Try Settings > General > Usage > Storage > check here.
To test if app is using cellular data instead of Wi-Fi, switch Airplane mode: ON and switch Wi-Fi: ON manually.

How much data does Apple TV use?

I am experiencing a large amount of data usage and cannot determine what the culprit is. I am approaching my cap of data allowance on a regular basis. Does anyone know how much data the Apple TV uses? I realize it depends on what you are streaming. I primarily stream Netflix (set on the lowest data rate)
Thanks

I found this answer on NetFlix's blog sometime last year:
In the USA you have 3 video quality options: good quality, better quality, and best quality. Here is how much bandwidth they each use:
Good quality (up to 0.3 GB per hour)
Better quality (up to 0.7 GB per hour)
Best quality (up to 1 GB per hour, or up to 2.3 GB per hour for HD)
Depending on how many movies you watch this could have a huge impact on your monthly usage...obviously your ISP wants you to watch its own movies.

How much data does google maps use

how much data does google maos use ?

That question has a lot of variables. If you are just looking up an address it should not using very much. If you are using it for an 8 hour drive it will use quite a bit.

Can i view how much data my ipad has used?

Altho I am on an unlimited internet package I am shocked at the daily usage figures. Especially as I only watch about an hour of streamed TV per day.
I'd like to see how much data streaming is happening on my daughter's iPad mini - right before I go and find a method to time restrict the device!
Thanks in advance

Settings>Cellular/Mobile
Here you can check the amount of data being used. I would suggest to reset the statistics (bottom of the page) then monitor the usage.

How much data does a call use over 3G?

Does anyone know how much data a call uses when using 3G?
For example if I made a 10min call over 3G is there an easy way to estimate how much data it would use?

I'd check my balance, make a call, then check the balance again. That should give a fair indication.
I'm a light user and find Tesco's SIM-only deal (500mins, 500MB, 500texts) is way more than adequate for my basic mobile needs for a tenner a month. Worth considering.

How much data does Assisted GPS use

Guys
I'm planning a trip into Europe, we will of course be taking a TomTom, but in the event that I need OVI maps, could you tell me how much data AGPS uses.
O2 charge £6.00 per mb, so I don't want to come home and find a massive bill waiting for me.

Usually when I try to use it, I use about 6-15mb per fix. It doesnt use A-GPS again after getting a fix unless satellite signals fail.

How much data do you generally use a month?

Hi everybody. So i am another guy who's getting the iphone 5 at a discount price.. .
I know they are gonna take my unlimmited data away, and i'll be force to choose the 2GB/$30 a moth, so i was curious too know how much data do i use per month, if 2GB was enough for me. It seems like it, i use 500 MB average a month. But having LTE means more speed, more data, so hopefully 2GB will cover my needs. How about you guys? how much data do you use a month?

My usage patterns vary, but 1-5GB a month is normal for me.
Note that people who participate on forums may not be a good representation of the general population. We tend to use our mobile technology so much that we are on our carriers' forums.
Also more likely to use our mobile data plan to access those forums. I know I do.
As for usage. 2-6 GB per month depending how much I use it.

How much data does MobileHot Spot use? Pandora?

I use mobile hotspot when i am in my room. Not much.. usually very quickly. Data? and I use Pandora while driving.. data?

There is no answer to your question. Every piece of data on the internet is different, you need to monitor your usage and understand what is going on through trial and error.
The best tool that is available is a Data Calculator:

Please note that the Data Calculator is an estimation tool and should not be depended or relyed on for real world results.

How much data does Apple Maps use?

I used maps for 15-20 minutes and it used 300 MB of network data. Looking for an answer because I only get 2GB per month and I wasted almost 20% of it in less than a half hour.

I guess it is possible I had satellite view on. I just used whatever was default and I got that huge data charge. I have just been avoiding maps since and using everything else normally so it has to be maps that was my big problem. Thanks for the response!

How can i see how large an app is and how much data is stored

In ios7 I could select an app and see it's size and how much data is stored in using it on my iPhone.
I can't seem to locate that option in ios8.1
to refresh and app I had the option of deleting it and reinstalling before based on the information held by the app.
is this clear?
MyFitnessPal is taking a long time to load, thought I would see how large the app is and how much info is stored
but as I've redundantly stated here I can't find that option in my phone now.
thanks in advance for any help you can offer
iPhone 5 iOS8.1

For reference in iOS 7 it is under Settings app > General > Usage.
According to the manual iOS 8 is the same…
http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1565/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf
(page 177)
Usage information
View cellular usage. Go to Settings > Cellular. See Cellular settings on page 179. View other usage information. Go to Settings > General > Usage to:
Display battery level as a percentage
See Battery Usage, including the elapsed time since iPhone has been charged and usage by app
View overall storage availability and storage used per app
View and manage iCloud storage
For me it take a few seconds to load, you may find that the app is being slow to open if it is still downloading some data for it's own caches etc. Try to ensure it has a good internet connection. Obviously it could just be that the service in question is also having issues, so consult their support too.

How do I see how much data I use on average a month?

I have AT&T, how can I see how much data on average I use in a month?

Login to https://www.att.com/olam/loginAction.olamexecute?goto=welcome
Then click: Analyze Past Usage
You'll see a graph showing the past size months of usage.
Total up your usage from April til Sept then divide by 6.

Is there a place I can see how much data I uploaded other server like the old version of Sync did?

In the old version of Firefox Sync you can see what data was uploaded, with the next Sync I see nothing and when I got my account on the website Firefox, I don't see nothing just a sign in and change password screen. Would there be more there soon?

Hi Kurbo,
Please do leave feedback for the developers at input.mozilla.org, currently there is not a feature that shows how much data or what data is uploaded.
However if you are handy at picking up apis there are some apis that can be read about [https://blog.mozilla.org/services/2014/05/08/firefox-accounts-sync-1-5-and-self-hosting/ here]

How can I see how much data passes through my Time Capsule?

I am thinking of using a cellular data plan at home. My current, rural internet provider is slow and unreliable. I use a MiFi as a backup and have 4G service which is much faster and rarely goes down. I need to see how much data is downloaded and uploaded to compare costs. All our data passes through my Time Capsule.

A similar app to what Bob mentions is peakhour.. it works on any of the newer OS.
https://itunes.apple.com/au/app/peakhour/id468946727?mt=12
It is a good app. BUT.. fat ugly BUTT.. just the same as Bob has explained, it depends on SNMP to work.. and so due to apple removing a very useful and functional protocol from its airport range you can no longer use it. Bizarre.
I strongly recommend a Netgear WNDR3800 (older model now but you can pick up one cheaply on ebay) and a 3rd party firmware called gargoyle. Apple delete my posts if I point you to it, so you will have to search yourself.
Replace your tall TC with the Netgear as the main router.. bridge the TC to it and you can continue to use its wireless and for TM backups. The advantage is that gargoyle will not only measure everyones usage, by IP, it is able to set a quota on everyone using the net and you can set that quota for hourly, daily or weekly or monthly. It will track the usage and you can see at a glance what everyone has used.
It is simple to load.. just like a standard firmware update. The interface is as clear as anyone can make it with such of lot of tools. And the actual router is powerful enough to provide excellent QoS and parental controls on top of measurements and quota.

How can I find out how much data an update takes

I have only limited access to data, unless I'm paying big overage charges. Thereforre I want to know before hand how much data i will download with each update. No information appears to be available when you want to update your pages, numbers or keynotes. This applies to apps in MAC. I operate wit Yosemite OS X. on on a 27inch Mac #)^ GHZ Intel Core 2 Duo. any info would be great. Thanks.

Besides the good ideas given so far, you could look into a few Support
Sites for information such as the App Store as suggested to read each
item that appears to be available for your existing system version...
And consider looking through this page and adjoining links within it for more:
•OS X - Recent Software Updates - Apple Support:
http://www.apple.com/support/osx/software-updates/
I've been fairly aware of the limitations and bandwidth overage charges or
a reduction in available access to the internet when & if one runs over...
And there is plenty of useless stuff loaded in web pages that can waste it.
Hopefully you have a good archive to save the important download versions
(& backups) so you may be able to use them again offline, when possible.
Good luck & happy computing!

How much data can 256GB Flash storage hold?

How much data can a 256GB Flash storage hold? The only reason I haven't gone ahead with my purchase is that I'm worried that 256GB is too little. I wish it were possible to upgrade to 512GB on the base model.

Depends on what you're gonna put in it.
How big is your current HD? Are you 50% full?
Only you can answer that question.
I've got a 500GB hard drive and I've only used 80GB since everything else is saved on a external drive for security and privacy purposes in case i lose my MB.
