    Hi

    Heading over to the UK this weekend and with 3 and have a limited amount of data to use. As its all you can eat in Ireland I don't monitor it but I want to monitor in while in the UK so I don't exceed it. There is a data usage in settings but wondering if there is any app that I can use and turn it on once I land in the uk that will monitor my data

    Looking for suggestions as few on the play store

    Isn't the limit something like 5.5 GB?

    You won't go over that in one weekend.

    Use the data limit setting on the phone and set it just above your current usage. Gradually increase it each day and you shouldnt have any issues.

    You're on Android? Just use the data usage in settings on your device, set your reset date to the day you go over there, and then have it set to cut off once it his the 6GB limit.

    There's no way you'll go over 6GB, just don't watch loads of videos.

    I am on Android and can Set the Data Usage warning in settings but cannot reset it back to zero or change the date. However messing around with it under the billing cycle can set the Limit.

    Wont be watching any videos so will keep an eye on this

    Cheers
