For many of us, the use of data is a mystery. With a few people who say bills that go in the iPhone thousands of dollars, it is important to understand how the iPhone uses the data and how to avoid billing. Because confidentiality rules, I can not say exactly where it went or you did. We are told that we must have dumped "large" files, multiple "updates" or "seen a lot of data sites." What is that all anyway? kilobytes (KB), megabytes (MB), gigabytes (GB), how can we get a grip?

Do not have the capacity of the iPhone given

Different phones use data in different ways. The difference could easily control the increasing use of astronomical data and very expensive especially when traveling outside their area of coverage or international networks. IPhones are more data-intensive because of their HTML e-mail function, check the settings Automatic, experience with Internet and all the cool applications that we seem to live without it.

International roaming and data usage are not included in the standard data plan you get with your iPhone. It is important to understand how different applications use data and downloads. A rule of thumb is that if digital or is linked with Flash video or moving across the screen or using the GPS (like Google maps), uses a large amount of data. For example, a standard cameral takes a digital photo of 5 megapixels. Opening an e-mail with a 5-megapixel photo or download a 3 minute video on YouTube, it takes about 2-3 MB on your iPhone. international network would pay about $ 40 for each of these activities.

Time

You can disable the general navigation on any phone. iPhones have a default setting for International Data Roaming "OFF". In the Options box, can be found under Settings> General> Data Network> Roaming. This block email, navigation and visual voice mail and other Internet downloads, but will not be a block of text or image / Video messages (SMS or MMS). You will be charged for text messages and image / video which we now know can be as much as $ 40 each.

You can also activate "Fetch new data" off ". This will disable your e-mail and calendar synchronization. Although you have to do things manually, you can control the data flow. If you just have to have, consider using public Wi-Fi available in many international airports, hotels and restaurants. This can save lot.

Packages

When traveling abroad, there are global add-ons, you can buy that will allow a limited set services in 90 countries. A good idea would be to start with your iPhone before you go meters to see if your package will be enough. Also, make sure that the iPhone network work in the country you are visiting.

Maybe you like the price of these packages with other companies such as equipment rental network in the country moving. companies as Cellhire ( www.cellhire.com ) have network of relationships over 180 countries. They are competitively priced and have the peace of mind that being on the network in the country, his camera work.

Use your m

When the foreign configure the crawler to zero using (Settings> General> Use> Reset Statistics). You can then control use and prevent overflows. All fans are estimated to use and should not be used to calculate your bill. You will be kept in the stadium and help prevent high bills of use.

Remember the magic number: 1024

When the monitoring of its use against a MB or GB or next to consider their own, remember the number 1024. It is 1024 KB to 1 MB. So when you see your bill and has, for example, 9600 KB, which is 9375 MB. 1024 MB also make a GB.

1GB = 1024 MB

1 MB equals 1024 KB

Sooo ….

A beam 5 GB = 5120 MB or 5,242,880 KB

A beam of 200 MB = 204 800 KB

Ready, set, go to my destination
