Controlling data usage

Indexterm: "settings"

Sub-indexterm: "data usage"

Indexterm: "data traffic"

Keep track of and control the amount of data transferred to and from your device

during a given period. For example, you can set data usage warnings and limits for

your device to avoid additional charges. You can also limit the amount of data used

by individual applications.

Adjusting data usage settings can help you keep greater control over data usage but cannot

guarantee the prevention of additional charges.
