Nightly Data

Felky — Thu, 23 Jan 2025 12:39:15 GMT

I was just wondering why I am routinely showing data use at night around 12-12:30 am when phone is snoozed and on wifi? some as high as 600mb? Makes no sense to me as unit is on wifi at that time of night. Seeing varying amounts of data around that time, some 200mb, some 120mb etc. I get there could be the odd back ground thing that might need data but no way should it ever be that high?

@Felky Public Mobile's system tallies up the data usage twice a day and one of those times is around midnight. So it doesn't mean you're using it then, it's just the total since the last tally.

@Felky

Adding to @Phil_Adelphus the other data update time is around 12:00 noon.

The data usage is reflected in the remaining amount immediately. It's only the additional details about the usage for each individual day that show up in the usage history that are updated twice per day.
