Cellular usage being used while I'm sleeping and on Wi-Fi?
I have a iphone 4s on Vodafone's pay monthly.
While I'm using Wi-Fi, my Cellular is being used and it's going up every 5 minutes by KB not MB.
But as you know KB will eventually turn into MB and one day this will have me going over my Data limit (250mb).
I've only tried Double clicking my home button to see if there are any background apps.
I can't think of anything else to try to find out what is using my Cellular data!
Ps: I have push notifications enabled on Facebook/Instagram/Twitter etc but even when i'm not recieving them, something is taking my mb.
You may have a little problem. Trying to shut everything down and restart everything over. Or call customer services
Certainly your notifications are taking up the data… Try switching push notifications off for one night… And then check the data usage next day…
if this doesn't help, you can switch off your data n Wi-Fi connections manually while you sleep
If your Wi-Fi signal drops out occasionally, then it will default to your network data while it tries to reconnect. Ensure it is turned off and just the Wi-Fi is on. If it still happens you may have inadvertently downloaded some malicious software.
- Would downloading and streaming while Wi-Fi is on still take up cellular data? I turned cellular data off on my iPhone and turned on Wi-Fi. I'm allowed 7GB of data each month and the cell carrier told me not to make and big downloads or stream videos or it will slow my internet down. If I do these things while Wi-Fi is on, would I still be using up the 7GB? Or can I download and stream freely like I did with my iPod?
- When you have Wi-Fi and cellular data on at the same time, does it use cellular data? If I keep my cellular data on and also have my iPhone connected to Wi-Fi, will it use any of my cellular data?
- What does reset statistics under cellular usage mean for the iphone 4? I've been trying to clear space on my phone because I have NO space on my phone. I have like 300 pictures and a couple videos on there… But I never really delete my messages or calling history… So is that what "resetting statistics" means? What's the best way to make space on your iphone 4?
- What does Cellular Data Usage Current Period mean? I have an iphone 5c and Unlimited calls, unlimited texts and 6GB of data. In cellular in settings it says Current Period: 8.4GB and Current Period Roaming: 0 bytes, am I going over my bill?!
