iphone-data-usage-01If you’re constantly using up your monthly mobile data allowance on your smartphone or tablet device the culprit may be some data hungry apps…but you can easily put a lid on them.

It’s as simple getting into the mobile data settings on your device and restricting which have access to mobile data all the time and which will only connect to the internet when you have wi-fi access.    Cutting down on this background internet traffic can make a big difference to your usage.

If you’d rather not drill down too far in your device’s settings there are also plenty of apps on the market that can manage it for you.  

For iOS Try – My Data Manager

For Android Try – Data Usage
