IPhone iMessage, data usage?
Does iMessage for iPhone constantly use data in the same way for example keeping Facebook open, or keeping Location Services on? Or, does it only use data when sending the actual iMessage?
Just use data for sending message
Very little data would be used either way. If you are on contract, then you're in luck. If you send 30 iMessages a day while keeping it open, you are looking at tops 10 megabytes in a month.
- What counts as data usage on the iPhone 4S? So basically, I just want to know what counts as data usage. & also, if you have unlimited Internet, does safari still count as data usage?
- Unknown data usage on iPhone 4S? My family and I all have smartphones (all iPhones except one) and on our phone bill, it says that we're already at 6.7 GB, in 15 days… Looking further into it, I noticed that on each phone, data was being used every hour. Like anywhere between 1 and 19, 000 KB being used exactly every hour. Like 3 KB at 1:49, 15 KB at 2:49, 7 KB at 3:49 in the morning. KB's aren't a lot, but when you have 6 devices using KB's every hour, it really adds up.
- Under settings on my iPhone, does the data usage include Wi-Fi usage? Because its stating a ridiculous amount and I've had my data off… And my Wi-Fi on. Does the total of data include the amount of Internet I'm using when on Wi-Fi? I'm so confused
- IPhone: settings cell usage vs AT&T's data usage number? AT&T has a number, by calling it will send you a text message telling you how much usage you have used on your data. But also in the iPhone there's a cellular usage count in the settings app which also tells how much data you have used. Both of my cellular usage counts are different. Which is right?
