Unreasonably Fast Data Depletion on Smarty – Anyone Else?
Hi, I know, the app is how I found out about it being on the 23rd December. The phone settings only shows total GB by app for the whole of the time since I’ve had the phone (nearly 2 years ago). Screen time only shows app usage on the day and time but that doesn’t show any difference in average usage than any other month.
No iOS update that I can remember (but I usually update on WiFi anyway and I was at home that day). Backups are only done on WiFi also. I don’t understand how this amount of data can be used in one day, when the most data I’ve used on a single day in the past 6 months or so hasn’t gone higher than 5gb and nothing has been any different 🤷🏻♀️
Smush_1997743 It's going to be a bit tricky as the dashboard shows what was used from their records. It does perhaps seem strange that this only happened once.
Could your phone perhaps have moved to mobile data rather than wifi without you noticing? I have spotted that occasionally, although not for a long period and hence not much mobile data used.
Did you perhaps lose broadband at home for some while without spotting it and phone moved to mobile data?
I can only suggest (albeit with hindsight) setting a reminder to reset your phone data each time your smarty plan renews.
