Motorola Edge - Control Data Usage

Control data usage
Turn mobile data off/on
To toggle it on/off, swipe the status bar down and touch .
When you turn off data usage over your cellular network, you can still use data by connecting to a Wi-Fi network.
Cellular data must be ON if you want to:
•
Receive or send multi-media messages
•
Share your phone’s internet connection with other devices
Set data limit
Sometimes it's easy to exceed your data plan limit without realizing it. To avoid surprises, set a usage warning that
notifies you when you’re close to your limit, and set a usage limit that turns off cellular data when the limit is
reached.
1. Go to Settings > Network & internet > Mobile network.
Or, in quick settings, touch & hold .
2. Touch Data warning & limit.
3.
To set a warning, turn Set data warning on , then touch Data warning and enter the amount of data.
4.
To set a usage limit, turn Set data limit on , then touch Data limit and enter the amount of data.
Restrict background data
Even when you’re not using them, most apps sync data in the background.
You can prevent specific apps from ever sending or receiving data in the background. Also, if you're running low on
data during your billing cycle, use Data Saver to conserve your remaining data. Data Saver lets you quickly turn off
background data usage for all apps; if you have one or two that want to continue using background data, you can
set them as exceptions.
When you restrict background data, you will not receive notifications from apps that typically sync in the
background (like Gmail) until you open the app; then data syncs as usual.
If you're running low on data during your billing cycle:
1. Go to Settings > Network & internet > Mobile network.
Or, in quick settings, touch & hold .
2.
Touch Data Saver and turn Use Data Saver on .
You'll see in your status bar and all apps are prevented from using background data.
Tip: The first time you turn Data Saver on, is added to quick settings. After that, just swipe the status
bar down and touch to turn Data Saver off/on.
