Data used while I sleep

[Marchie]

Hey all,   I used 7gb of data of my 20gb throughout the month between 12:45am and 1:30.  Has anyone had this happen?  Very odd.

Hey @Marchie The 3 folks below are correct. However, for a peace of mind, here is an iPhone data manager app and an Android data manager app. Both can show you what programs are being used and how much data is being used. Also, you may wish to make sure your "app store" is not set for auto updates. Also make sure you're WiFi is on all the time while at home. Hope this helps.

@Marchie  PM updates the usage 2x a day so when your sleeping it’s just being updated from the prior 12 hours usage .

@Marchie 

PM does not update the data usage constantly.  In fact, it only update it twice a day. 

So, any entry you see is just a total usage between that timestamp and the timestamp of the previous entry.  The early morning usage  you see on the Usage log does not mean it was used in the morning but a total usage for the last 12 hours.

Also, for correct usage reading, always use Incognito mode to login My Account to avoid reading cached old info

PM updates data usage twice a day so that might be your total before midnight.
