Can I find out what i downloaded to my phone?

    Couple of weeks ago I downloaded just under 550mb of something onto my iPhone 5 over 3G. Major mistake on my part I know.
    But I have no idea what it was.

    Is there a way to see this?
    Now it may not have been an app from iTunes, I've checked my iTunes account and there is nothing there on that specific date. Tried my phone provider who say they can't tell me becuase of privacy issues which is fair enough.

    This happened just after midnight, all I can think of was i was playing a game which I sometimes do before I go to sleep, but this would have Farm Heroes or Solataire, something that I play often.

    I may not be able to find out but its bugging me cos it cost me over €8 whatever I did.

    It more than likely wasn't just after midnight. That's just the way providers bill data. Any chance there was a large number of apps used that day? I'm not sure but I think data can be billed for a few days usage at a time.

    550mb sounds like it may have being watching a youtube clip or something

    go into settings/cellular scroll down to USE CELLULAR DATA FOR

    and see which app is using the most data

    also check system services itunes accounts amd mail can be very heavy on data

    Didnt think a whole load of apps were used that day, even if they were its always over wi-fi during the day.

    Could have been YouTube... its a possibility.

    Will check out the data my apps are using and see if it sheds any light

    Thanks!

    Cannot be one single app as there is a 50GB limit on downloading apps over 3G...
