Have a graphical display of data and time left till next renewal

[mimmo]

Hi,  I'm finding it a little hard to calculate data usage vs time left on my plan.  its difficult because of the 90 day terms vs a 30 day.  I would love to see a pie chart showing, data usage and time reamining till next renewal.  

thanks

Although it is a nice idea for some sort of graphical display, can you use a calculator to figure out the percentage remaining (used / allowed amount), and then compare it to the number of days remaining?  It's simple math.

There are apps for that. I use "My Data Manager" on Android. 90-day cycles are thankfully an option, and it has pie charts too. It also can handily display your data usage in the notification shade, shows per-app data usage, and notifies you when you've hit your daily usage quota (based on data remaining divided by days remaining). Super useful!

@shrimpdude awsome app.  exatly what i was looking for a simple to understand representation on data usage and time left.

@stonechucker yes it is simple math, but cumbersome and time consuming, when a visual can show you in a matter of seconds.

@mimmo another option you could consider is Data Witness, written by our own community member @IWIK.  I've written up some info on it here if you are interested:  http://productioncommunity.publicmobile.ca/t5/Phones-Hardware/IWIK-s-quot-Data-Witness-quot-for-Andr....  I have not tried My Data Manager, so can't give you a comparison, but I'm guessing they acomplish similar things.
