Does a GPS application on an Iphone eat into my data plan?
I want to get an Iphone 4s but AT&T's data plans are a bit expensive. I have wi-fi at home and would probably rarely use anything more than 300 MB but I'm worried if I have to use the phone for GPS that it will eat into my data and use all of it or more up. So do GPS apps actually use your data? If not, how exactly do they work?
Yes, it downloads maps, locations, routes, updates constantly when in use.
I believe if you are not within any Wi-Fi source, such as your house or a non-encrypted secure Wi-Fi hotspot (like Starbucks), then the iPhone 4s will use your AT&T's data plan for the GPS or any navigational purposes.
So, yes, GPS applications actually use your data plan and can use all of it and more.
Its best to ask your network provider. But i think they do.
- Why does my Iphone 4S get warm and eat battery? So I got my new phone a few days ago and can't help but notice that it gets pretty warm after about 20 minutes of using facebook and the app store. I'm also losing 1% battery every 3-4 minutes while using it. Is this normal? I have tried turning off 'locations' on most apps and left it on for weather etc. Removed my icloud account but it still gets quite warm. Concerned it will damage the phone, thanks for any input!
- Is 890 calories too little for me to eat per day? I'm 20, 5 feet and 98lbs. I normally never eat over that anyway. My body functions well… I want to lose a few lbs I have been hitting the gym. According to my iPhone app LoseIt- I have a calorie budget of 890 calories per day if I wish to lose 1 1/2lbs per week until June 15! People say its too little but everybody is differnt. I can't eat the recommended amount of calories per day because its just way too much for my body…
