iPhone 5 data usage question? - Ashley Shelton - 02-28-2013 10:25 AM
I just got the iPhone 5 today with the 2gb plan and I was wondering how much data usuage I can use? I mostly go on Facebook, Instagram and check my e-mail daily but I do that on wifi, would it count toward my data usage if I use wifi? Also is there any way I can look on my phone to see how many usage I've used for the data?
Thanks!

You can check how much you use! wait untill morning to check because thats around when they update it. to check jsut call this number:*3282#
generally you could brouse the enternet for 12-15 hours or watch 1-2 hous of video with 2gb of data.
IF you are just using wifi it will use none

Fortunately, using all of those apps on the wi-fi will not take up any of your data. I don't know if other cellular networks tell you how much you can use but AT&T doesn't until you've hit 90% of your data, which then it sends you either an email or text message. Hope this helps!

----------- 2GB... thats your plan
I mostly go on Facebook, Instagram and check my e-mail daily but I do that on wifi, would it count toward my data usage if I use wifi?
--------- no... wifi is free unlimited
Also is there any way I can look on my phone to see how many usage I've used for the data?
-------- yes... or go get a free data tracker app

When you use wifi your mobile data is not used (unless you have both turned on and have locked your phone. If so then your mobile data may be used. So turn off mobile data when you use wifi). To check how much data you have used download an application called "onavo count" from the app store. There is another app that'll help you reduce your data usage by compressing your data. Its called "onavo extend", but i don't recommend it as it slows down your browsing speed. You also have 2GB of free usage so I don't think you'll need it.

Check the appstore for your carrier and they should have an app for you to signon and check usage.
