IPhone 200 text plan & text plus app data usage??

Hey everyone so i opted for the 200mb data plan and 200 texts, and i intend on using text plus app for most of my outgoing texts, but i wanted to know how much data that application uses? and does it need wifi or can i use 3G on it for texting other cell phones?

Personally I would go with the highest plan you can get (2gb). After one month check your usage. If you didn't go over 200 (which you probably will), switch to the lower plan.

Tried to transfer all my data to iPhone 5 from iPhone 3GS lost my email and app data? Do you why and how I can fix this?

Hi...
Tried to transfer all my data to iPhone 5 from iPhone 3GS lost ONLY my email and app data? But weird thing is, its still on my old phone!!!
Do you know why and how I can fix this?
Shelley

How did you "try" to transfer this data? The only way to restore App data is by restoring from a backup that contains the App data, then syncing the Apps back to the phone. Emails are not included in any iPhone backup, only account settings.

Iphone 6 plus excessive data usage

I got a iPhone 6 plus about too weeks ago. I realise I have been using a lot of data compared to my previous Samsung ativ. Previously I was using about 500-700mb a month on a 1gb data plan. I signed Vodafone for a 1.5gb data plan thinking it should be enough, only 4 days into my month I have already gone through 300mb with minimal usage. I have already turned off Itune updates, Icloud, background app refresh and I even tried turning off 4g. It is still using a lot of data, I have been tracking where the excessive data is coming from. Safari is the main course, I would go into 5-10 webpages and it would use 3-6mb and Facebook nearly uses 1mb for a refresh update. Everything else seem to be quite normal usage except those 2apps. I have tried restoring the phone to factory and restore my backup. At the moment it seems like Facebook seem to use a bit less but Safari is still the same. What can I do?

I did not see how to edit my post. I'm on Verizon. I have tried on Wifi and on cell tower. I can get on safari with no problem. I'm using ISO 8.1

If stolen iPhone deactivated, can thieves still access apps, data?

Phone stolen. Reported, deactivated. Question: if thieves crack password, can they access apps, email, Facebook, data, etc?

IF you use find my iPhone to remotely lock your phone, no one can access your information. Have you gone on iCloud.com and done so?
You can access icloud from another device with find my iPhone app, or a computer, login to your Apple ID and lock the phone. This may also help locate the phone if it is on.

Replaced iphone with new one now lost app data

I had to get my iphone 4 replaced by apple because it locked up after the latest iOS upgraded to 4.2.9 They could not even get it to work on there computers when restoring it. So given a new iphone. Told me to synch it as new i phone which I did. Now all my game apps have me starting from beginning. I see that it still has my old phone listed in my itunes. Could i restore to that and get the data back. Will i lose any new apps I downloaded since then? I dont want to restore it from old restore if it was corrupt and caused the problem. Looking for my angry bird levels and cut the rope levels. Any ideas.

Restore from the most recent backup of your old phone to get your data back.
If you find that your data was corrupt, you can always go back to restoring as a new phone. You'll never know until you try.

App that shows other apps data usage

Like the title says, is there an app out there that shows how much data each separate app uses ?
Like onavo count did.

As Lawrence Finch points out there is a section of the Settings app that will provide information on the cellular usage of each app. When your data period starts use that section of the Settings to Reset Statistics. School way down to the bottom to find this. As apps use Cellular in your current period data it will be reported there.

HT4623 Restore Single App Data?

Is it possible to restore a single app's data to an iphone from a previous backup?

App data is stored in only two places, on your device, & as part of your device's backup. To restore this data would require restoring from a backup that contained the data. However, the restore from backup process ia all or nothing. Further, an iCloud backup cannot be viewed or edited. It can only be restored to another iOS device.

Recover iCloud backup app data

Hi,
A while ago, I bought the app Stash to store and lock some data on an older Apple ID account. Unfortunately, my iPhone 4 was stolen, and I lost access to that older Apple ID account. Before it was stolen, I'd used a friend's iCloud account to make a backup, and this backup has the app data for Stash (mostly up to date; not much more was added into the app before my phone was stolen). I have a new iPhone 5S now, but the problem is, I can't access the old app data. The app data will not sync onto my new iPhone, since the app was bought on an account I no longer have access to.
I've tried a method on my new iPhone with the free version of the Stash app. By backing up to iTunes (making a local backup), I can use iBackup Viewer to extract all the data from the Stash app (so, honestly, it's not a very good app). I tried restoring my 5S to my iPhone 4's backup, but the app data for Stash won't sync, so I can't use that method.
My question is: is there any way I can get that data back from an iCloud backup, either by downloading it from iCloud, or trying to get the backup on my new phone (maybe I hadn't done it properly?) ? I feel like I should be able to- it is my data, after all - but sometimes this "advanced" cloud technology feels pretty dumb.
Thanks for you help

You have to setup your phone as new and restore from iCloud using the Apple ID with the iCloud backup. Then use a toold like iFunBox to extract the app data your need. Then again restore your phone as new using your primary account and paste the data back manually using iFunBox.

What causes cellular data usage to decrease if last reset has not changed? I reset every pay period cuz I do not have unlimited and was showing 125 mb sent/1.2g received. Now showing 98mb sent/980mb received. Last reset still shows same

I reset my cellular data usage every month at the beginning of my billing period so that I can keep track of how much data I am using thru out the month. I do not have the unlimited data plan and have gone over a few times. It's usually the last couple days of my billing cycle and I am charged $10 for an extra gig which I barely use 10% of before my usage is restarted for new billing cycle. FYI, they do not carry the remainder of the unused gig that you purchase for $10 which I disagree with. But have accepted. Lol Moving on.
I have two questions. One possibly being answered by the other. 1. Is cellular data used when I sync to iTunes on my home computer to load songs onto my iPhone from my iTunes library(songs that already exist)? 2. What causes the cellular data usage readings in iPhone settings/general/usage/cellular usage to decrease if my last reset has not changed? It is close to end of my billing cycle and I have been keeping close eye. Earlier today it read around 180mb sent/1.2gb received. Now it reads 90mb sent/980 mb recieved. My last reset date reads the same as before. I don't know if my sync and music management had anything to do with the decrease but i didn't notice the decrease until after I had connected to iTunes and loaded music. I should also mention that a 700mb app automatically loaded itself to my phone during the sync process. Is cellular data used at all during any kind of sync /iPhone/iTunes management? Is the cellular data usage reading under iPhone settings a reliable source to keep track of monthly data usage? Guess turned out to be more than two questions but all related. Thanks in advance for any help you can offer me. It is information I find valuable. Sorry for the book long question.

1) No.
2) It does provide an estimated usage, but it's not accurate. For accurate determination, you should check the remaining/used MBs from the carrier (most of the carriers provide this service for free).

Data Usage Details, Billing Concerns

Hey All,
I just finished my first month on the 200MB data plan, trying to save myself $15 a month, and have been looking over my bill that details my data usage. There's something extremely wrong with the reported data usage, and I'd like to get to the bottom of it. I have an iPhone 4.
Focusing on just the data usage over 1MB, there's a ton of reported data usage at times when I would have either been asleep or on a wi-fi network. In fact the majority of usage reports over 1MB fall into one of those two categories. How could there be 10MB of data sent while I am asleep and my iPhone is within 5 feet of the wi-fi router? And what on earth could be? I have my mobileme email and exchange work email set to push, but neither should account for more than 500kb of messages in the middle of the night, even if I weren't on wi-fi, or asleep.
I try to limit my actual data usage outside of wi-fi networks to RSS feeds an email, a habit I got into from my iPhone 3G days which was so painfully slow I wouldn't want to wait for a full website to load. So how I'm even coming close to using 200MB a month is a mystery to me (120MB reported data usage last month). Using the latest reports only, as I know for sure where I was the past three days, none of these data claims should be on my bill:
07/24 (Sun) 1:28AM - 1.6MB (I was at home asleep with the iPhone on left 2ft from the wi-fi router)
07/23 (Fri) 8:24M - 2.7MB (at home getting ready for work, connected to wi-fi)
So what's going on? It's not like I can stop using data I'm not using. Thanks for reading.

Thanks Lawrence. I called Apple and they offered no explanation for why the iPhone wasn't maintaining it's wi-fi connection, and the closest thing to a solution they had for me was suggesting I manually enable and disable cellular data as I enter and leave areas with a wi-fi connection...ridiculous.
I've gone through my bill in its entirety, and 75.35MB were sent/received in the morning before I left for work or the night before while I was asleep, when the iPhone should have been connected to my wi-fi network. That's 44% of my entire data usage for the month! (my total data usage for the month was 170MB, not the 120MB I reported earlier).
For the first 10 days of my billing cycle I had an iPhone 3G running iOS 4, so I don't believe this issue is specific to the iPhone 4 hardware (which is what I've been using for the past 25 days).

Why does the new iOS 8.0.2 software refresh your apps if you back out to text or check another app? It's frustrating and its racking up my data charges and I really don't like it!

look I updated my phone to iOS 8.0.2 and now any time I back out of an app to text someone or check on another app it refreshes the page (if I'm on the internet) or the app and it's really annoying. If someone could please tell me how to fix this or just help get a new software up please do. It is racking up my data usage with all the refreshing and its getting really annoying and expensive.
Thank you.

Same issue here both with my iphone 5S as well as my iPad2. THe sync to my macbook air does not complete and it shows a large overcapacity level when connected, but once I disconnect there is plenty of room (4 GB) available, not a 20 GB overage.

After system restore to back up have lost texts, photos and app data

Speakers not working on iphone all of a sudden and volume switches not working (just the volume comes up but no bars at the bottom). So did system restore and more problems.
After I did this restore (to my backup done today) to my iphone 4s, I now have no text messages on my phone, no photos and no data on my nike running app (6months of records of runs). Have searched through these forums and still stuck.
I think I'm going to have to take my iphone somewhere for the speaker issue, but have no idea where as optus sent it out to me directly via mai l(Adelaide, Australia).
In the meantime, I really want my texts, photos and app data back on my phone.
any help HUGELY appreciated..

thanks for your reply. I am trying the restore again now.
But no, I still have no sound, so it was all for naught. Its fine if I have headphones in, and fine if its in a dock or connected to bluetooth, the phone also rings and I can hear people on the phone: the only sound that doesnt work is music playing through the speaker, and video. Also when I press the volume up and down buttons, nothing works. I suspect there is something wrong with the docking connection as far as I can see from other peoples questions on here.
But the loss of texts and app data is just the icing on the cake

Corrupted backup. Unable to recover photos, texts, app data, etc.

I recently updated to iTunes 10.5. Prior to doing this I backed up my iPhone 4 but it said the backup was corrupt. I figured that I could still proceed since I backed up a few days ago. However, I was wrong. When I tried to restore my phone after the update it said the restore points were not found. I was forced to set up my phone as a new device. Is there any way to restore photos and other data that was on my phone prior to the update or are they lost forever?
Thank you in advance for any help.

Hi avalo995,
There is no way to remove all data bar the app data when restoring the official iPhone & iOS, if this data is stored then it is held in the backup file and restoring from the backup file will return all the data onto the phone.
As for the text messages, you can take screenshots of the texts (via holding home button and then clicking the sleep/wake button) and export them off the iPhone onto a computer where they can be synced back as pictures in the future.
The backup file can be moved from one system to another by copying it from the original backup location and pasting it into the correct location on the other computer. The backup file location can be found here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766
Hope it helps.

When I get a text message from my brother or sister who have IPhones there is no text but there is a "download" button. If I tap the download button it beeps but there is no download. My galaxy note 4 uses verizon messages app. how do I get these text

when I get a text message from my brother or sister who have IPhones there is no text but there is a "download" button. If I tap the download button it beeps but there is no download. My galaxy note 4 uses verizon messages app. how do I get these text messages?

Picture messages without a texting plan are 25 cents each. Better than the $1.99 or $2.99 from the online store....
Attaching to an email would not work as mobile email does "do" attachments.
Sending to your online album will use text messages, I believe. Better to use a micro SD card, save to the card, and transfer them to your computer that way.

How data & text plans work in Canada

I have to go to Canada for 15 days later this month for family business. I anticipate needing to communicate with both Canadian & US family members quite a bit. We already have Nationwide + Canada for 2 family lines, one of which (mine) is also a smart phone. I learned, to my disappointment, that VZ has discontinued the unlimited Global Data plan for Canada, replacing it instead with 2 limlted options. The CS rep I spoke with suggested that, after analyzing my data usage, I go with the lower tier of 75 MB at the pro-rated rate for my time in Canada.
Question 1: Does the limit mean that I have up to 75 MB available during the 15 days or does that mean I can only use up to 15 days' worth of 75 MB before being charged extra?
Question 2: In order to keep data use/email to a minimum, I've thought about adding a text package. The CS rep told me that with a text package any texts sent FROM Canada ON my US phone to either a Canadian or a US number will be treated as domestic texts, and therefore not incur any additional "international" text charges. Is this true?
Thanks for any help you can provide!

Correct, 15 days of 75mb canadian data is about 37.5mb of data (although keep in mind, depending on when your bill cycle lands, it may not break down that cleanly... especially if your bill cycle happens to be in the middle of those 15 days!)
Also correct, texting TO Canadian numbers or texting FROM Canada to Canadian or US numbers are all rated as "domestic" and come out of whatever package you have... HOWEVER!!!! If you have a package that includes "unlimited mobile to mobile" texting (which means VzW to VzW), that feature will NOT work while you are in Canada... so for example if you have 500msgs with unlimited m2m, only text while in canada, and only text VzW customers... you still only get 500 messages. Just a bit of caveat emptor there. Same thing with minutes on the Nationwide + Canada plan, mobile to mobile and friends and family voice minutes do not apply while in canada either! Everything is either Nights and Weekends (you get 1000 of these, not unlimited) or anytime minutes (your regular allowance).
