What is 1GB of shared data for iphone 4? - 1

Ok i might get an iphone 4 from at&t that is 8GB, but when i went to the mobile share plans there's a thing about 1GB of shared data with unlimited talk and text. My question is what is shared data? And the examples of using it? And how much does is 1GB to be used?

You can pretty much add another plan and let them use some of your data. If you aren't planning to share your data it's enough for you. With 1 GB you can watch 2 hours of videos on youtube. But that just uses a lot compared to just using the data for web browsing

  • Would 1gb of data be enough for the iphone 4s? I plan on getting the 1gb of data per month and wondering if it would be enough for me because i don't want to go over and pay loads of money. I would be on twitter, instagram and snapchat mostly, but connecting to Wi-Fi when available. Also should i turn my data off everytime i can connect to Wi-Fi to save data or will it not be used when connected to Wi-Fi? When should i turn data off.
  • Will getting the 1GB Data Share Plan the right choice for a iPhone with At&t? I was wondering is it a right decision to choose the 1GB data share plan, since there will be only one line on the account? I don't know if that will effect my speed or what, I'm just trying to choose the right plan for an iPhone that will be the only line.
  • Will 4GB shared data be enough for two iPhone 5's? I'm signing up with Verizon today and getting two iPhone 5's. On average, is 4GB shared data per month enough to compensate for both devices?
  • Will 1GB of data a month be enough for an iPhone? I'm thinking of getting an iPhone, but only the small plan, which has only 1GB of data a month. The only thing I go on the internet for on my phone is Facebook. Will it be enough data? Or will it be constantly looking for updates and stuff and use internet data? My old phone did that and took away heaps.
