How can I tell if an app needs the Internet to run?

While I understand that I need to be connected to the Internet to download apps, I am wondering if there is a way to deterine if I need to be connected when I use the app before I go to the trouble of downloading it.  If there something that I should look for in the requirements sections?  Or, is there a filter setting that I could use to just look at apps that work independently from the Internet?

Some apps will run fine unconnected, but try to check in to keep stats and whatever if there is a connection.  Not to mention the wonderful in app purchase opportunity.  So it will be hard to get a straight answer.   
When you are looking at an app, think about what it does.  Does it seem like it would need a connection?  Like a streaming app?  Or is it a drawing program, that obviously does not.

  • HT204266 how can you tell if an app update is free?

    I constantly get app updates, it seems as if I am be charged for them, how can you tell if an app update is free?

    I have never been charged for an app update. Which apps are you being charged to update? There should be no charge for an update.
    If you upgrade the app from a lite version to a full version, there will be a charge for that.

    If you are seeing "Installed" in the Purchased section of your iPhone, then it only means that the app is installed on your device. Is that where you are seeing the "Installed"?

  • How can I purchase items for app when the app was loaded on another ID before? I has to Chang my AppleID and also transferred an app to new phone. I can't purchase items for app because it wants me to buy the app through new ID. The app was free.

    All apps (and other content from the store) are tied to the account that downloaded them, whether or not they are free. To do in-app purchases in that app you will either need to log in with the account that downloaded it, or delete it (which will delete its content) and download it with your currently logged in account if you want to do IAPs on that account.

    Hi ...
    Just be cause the account was disabled (Apple ID) doesn't mean you can't reset the password and have access to your iTunes purchases.
    Use the iforgot link to reset your password > Apple ID: "This Apple ID has been disabled for security reasons" alert appears
    If you have problems resetting, use the email form here >   Apple - Support - iTunes Store - Contact Us

    How can I import not only apps from the old iphone to the new iphone, but also the content of the apps?

    You can sync apps as you normally would, but I do not believe this copies over app specifc data (i.e. saved game status/scores).
    You can always restore your new device with a backup from your old device.

  • Updating PS CC 2014--how can I tell if I am using the latest version?

    I just updated Bridge, PS and LR from the Creative Cloud, but when I went to use them, I was still using the old versions despite the fact that CC said I had updated to the latest versions.  A thread in the LR forum led me to sign out and back into Creative Cloud, and that did the trick for LR.  However, I cannot discern any changes in PS.  How can I tell if I am using the latest version of PS?  When I click on About Photoshop, the popup says:
    TIA.

    that's the latest ps as of today.

    Thanks for replying. The plan you have it would be an additional charge to add the hotspot feature. It's not free with the Nationwide plan. You would need to add the feature online at www.verizonwireless.com/myverizon

  • How can I tell this FM to update the buffer before reading data??

    Hi All,
    I have developed a Web Dynpro Application that calls a FM.
    Values are written into the database (I use a standard FM for that).
    After that, values a read from the database to be show in the Web Dynpro Application again (Again, using a standard FM).
    However, the data is not being updated, that is, the data delivered by the function module is not the updated, new data, but the old data.
    If I select the data using simple select statements, ist is provided correctly (new data). That means the database already has the correct data, but the FM uses some sort of buffer which does not seem to be up to date at this point in time...
    How can I tell the FM to update is buffers before being acually executed?
    The function module in question is called HRIQ_ACAD_READ_TIMELIMITS, but I don't think this information is required to answer my question.
    THANKS, Johannes

    aye, thats ecaxtly what i meant.
    Displaying the data in a new process. i know this is not what you finally want, but if the data is correct in your new process we might get better ideas what is causing your buffer problems.
    BTW is your system scaled? do you have more than one application server and may this be a synchronisation error?

  • How can I tell what table(s) have the most transactions against them

    Hello, in Oracle 11.2.0.3, RHEL 6 x86-64, how can I tell what tables have the highest transaction activity?
    Picked "Objects" because I could not find a space related to performance tuning
    Humbly,

    What version of Oracle are you running (standard or enterprise)?
    Easist system is to run an AWR or statspack report. If you run either of these you will see sections on segments (so segments by logical reads, physical reads) which is easily digestible.
    v$segment_statistics will also give you a breakdown on segment access.
