Does the iPhone 5 automatically use Wi-Fi when it's available?
Everything I've seen says that it does. This makes perfect sense. From the moment I got the phone (today) I've had it on Wi-Fi, and the symbol for Wi-Fi has been displayed at the top left corner.
For some reason, my carrier (Verizon) tells me that I've used 457 MB of my 2GB already. This shocked me.
(I found this out because I received a text that said I had used about 75% of my prorated data. I then did some research)
So I clicked on "Data Details" and found a nice little chart describing how I had used no more than 1.8 MB. The last time I had used Data was 7 hours ago, and I've been on YouTube on the iPhone for several hours. (Yes, the Wi-Fi symbol WAS displayed, I clearly remember.)
So the detailed chart says 1.8. The overall report says 457. This data is not shareable. What on EARTH is wrong here?
(I'm taking it to Verizon tomorrow, but if someone here can give me some info, I'd be just delighted.)
Thanks.

Then why do I have half a gig on my data when I clearly used Wi-Fi? The detailed chart even agrees with me, but I don't pay based on the chart…
Yes, the phone remembers the Wi-Fi address and it picks that over cellular data.

- Why does my iphone shut down automatically? I have a iphone 3 and everytime i text play you tube the phone turns off. I have turned all the internet off to save battery. It is only 16gb and I have loads off apps and maybe it would be worth removing some as that would help with. Is it the battery maybe it needs replacing or i could need a different charger. When you put in in to charge its on fourty percent wthf. I need my phone for everyday use. Does this happen to any one else?
