Rogue program sucking up bandwidth?

Supposedly, this app Onavo will tell you who the data hog is as well as other info.

Hope this helps.

Have you checked your detailed usage online to see when this is happening?

Look in Setting under Cellular and you should find a list of all apps that are allowed to use cellular data, and how much data they have used. You may find that you are the culprit... You can restrict any app you want to use wifi only for data. On this same screen you can reset all statistics so going forward you can track which apps you are using and the data usage.

You don't say what phone you're using so it's hard to say where to look for your usage...if it's an Android platform, click 'Settings', scroll to 'Data Usage', then scroll down. Your usage is listed in order, biggest first....Dennis

Ummm, ... he said iPhone WITH 4G. :)

Read more slowly.

My wife's iPhone was sucking up data and I discovered she had accidentally started the stock ticker. I stopped it and there was a world of difference. I wish I could delete it from her desktop but it seems to be a "perma-app". I haven't looked for a task manager for her iPhone like I have on my Galaxy Android but just check occasionally to see what she has running.

I've edited my post to included the original referenced post. Hopefully, it make sense now?
