What is sucking up my mobile data on my iPhone?

[Anonymous]

I'm new to iPhone, I came from android. And simply turning off "Mobile data" is not working. The solution that works on android by simply turning off "Mobile data" and "Data roaming" is clearly not enough on IOS. There's still something using up my phone balance, I Just don't know what... any help please?

Hey do you think they'll be able to monitor you remotely without the data? Nope. Nada. Niet. THEY'RE WATCHING YOU EVERY MILLISECOND OF YOUR FUTILE EXISTENCE 👀

But yeah, jokes aside, have you tried understanding which apps are using data in the background?

I have mobile data turned off. And selected most of the things on my phone to work on WiFi. Previously I noticed that "Wifi Assist" was turned on which I turned off cause it uses data when wifi connectivity gets poor. But even after that, I noticed data is still being used... even if I'm not making calls or messages.

worst trade, you'll probably regret it 😂

i know android has a clear junk file, try looking for that on there, usually junk is whats taking lots of memory

[Asker]

Why would I regret it? Lol
I don't know why Android is so straight forward and IOS isn't... There's a clear junk file on Android? I'm not asking about Android though I'm asking for IOS 😂

[chriscdi]

i know im asling if ios got one or not lol

[Asker]

I don't know lol I haven't seen one on here...

Call the help desk for Apple. They'll talk to you about what's what. The phone number can be googled.

Could be a sign of hackers possibly when your battery gets drained fast. Be sure to put tape on all your webcams on phones to in case you or anyone else doesn't know.

[Asker]

My battery doesn't get drained fast lol
It's only an Issue with something using mobile data, I Just don't know what...

Hmm.. Maybe Gps.. Or YouTube videos. I think you cqn call your company like vwrizon and ask then wherd your data is going and whatz being used. I know my mom called then and asked before so its possible.

[Asker]

I have location services turned off currently if that's the case. YouTube videos? Hmm...🤔 I only use that while on Wi-Fi.

I'm not sure about iphones. I'm on my first one. But I have to say the Huawei, or however you spell it, Androids I had kept dying after a few months. I didn't pay much for them, 70 bucks, but I went through three in a year and a half. I was not impressed. If I'd bought 1 Iphone, I would probably have had better service.
I am typing this message on a 2011 Macpro which is a sturdy old workhorse of a laptop. I retired my 2006 desktop Macpro a few years ago because the browser couldn't be updated and the OS couldn't be either.
I can still use it to write on. It's slow because the bus speed is slow. But, they're nearly impossible to kill.
I wish Apple would charge a minimal fee to keep servicing "legacy" equipment.
I've had this laptop worked on once since I bought it used. I hate to give up the giant, beautiful 17 inch screen. It's built like a tank. A little heavy, but it has a DVD player and can burn cds. The titanium cover is a message center. Pencil writes on it perfectly and wipes clean with a clorox wipe, soap and water. I've dropped it many times. MIght be why I needed that repair.
And if the question is minor, Apple help line will answer it because you've spent those extra dollars to get their product. They're extremely helpful.

No idea you might need to call their help line.

If I were you I would have stuck with Android.

[Asker]

I'm guessing you own an Android?

[hellacray]

Lol yup. I still have a very old iphone that I don't use anymore.

But I personally don't like itunes and apple phones are just way overpriced. And they have like their own wires which only works on apple stuff.

[Asker]

Yeah that's the only downside to Apple products. You have to pay for their additional services 😁😂

[hellacray]

Yup pretty much
