so we ran a little test....
Went to town. Did not connect to WiFi. Turned on 3G on my iPhone 4S. Turned on mobile data & GPS on her Samsung Galaxy S3. Took screenshots of both....
Then when in town, i used my phone a LOT more than she did with hers. When we exited town i looked at her usage & it said
only 1MB of mobile data used.
I then fired up Facebook on HER phone via the stock browser (the APP has been deleted). I let the news feed load, i scrolled & then i opened THREE photos. The usage jumped 2MB.
Here's the final shots as we got home:
As said, i used my phone in town quite a lot more than she did as i was using mine as she was clothes shopping. I was on the Quidco app, i had the MyFreeCarCheck app open. I had Facebook app open - she had none of these open. The only one she did have open was My Data Manager (i had that open too).
I'm sorry but i'm not going to repeat myself AGAIN.
I'll give you a clue though - it's not been dismissed. You just need to read the part where we've acted on the advice.
I have wondered this also.
She says she only used FireFox to do with the no ads thing, but she didn't really use it a lot. She used Facebook on it, but other than that she hasn't used it much & can't remember other than Friday when she used it this month.
You could very well be correct. She thinks she used task manager most of the time to shut down the app ... but perhaps she didn't. Perhaps she thought she did. Perhaps she thought she used the back instead of home button. She doesn't know for 100% sure, so you may have a point.
She's more aware of what to do now, so it'll be interesting to see the results from this point on.
Very true point
I don't know how they differ either. The member earlier said the new app is better, but doesn't elaborate as to WHY it is better. Maybe it's better because it looks prettier, which is pretty useless, but maybe it's better because it manages data usage differently?
I don't know until they explain their comment.
