Why is there Data usage at or near midnight on most nights?

[Greg39]

When checking data usage history, I see data usage (wifi apparently) almost every night at or near 12 AM. I’m definitely sleeping and many nights my phone is off. Does anyone know why this occurs, and would it be using part of my monthly data amount. Thanks.

Thanks for clarifying

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
