1386155 2014-10-12 22:42:00 Does anyone know of a good free app that keeps track of how much data is being used on an iPad using 4G please? FoxyMX (5)

To find the built-in usage tracker, tap the Settings icon -> choose General -> tap Usage -> and scroll to the bottom of the page. Look in the Cellular Network Data section and total the data sent and received to get your current usage.

1386158 2014-10-13 00:09:00 Thanks for that. It's for my Dad's iPad so I will have a look when I go up to visit him tomorrow. I love it when he gets new toys for me to play with - am actually starting to wonder if he buys them as bait to get me up there. :p FoxyMX (5)

Does your dad have Wifi at his house or is he just using the 4G data on his iPad?

If he has wifi in his house then it would be more sense to turn the wifi on on the iPad.

1386160 2014-10-13 02:10:00 If still interested, App called "My Data Manager" does that. Lets you see daily, monthly usage and also configure plans on data usage. And its a FREE download... ronyville (10611)

No wi-fi at his house but it will be enabled for using it at my sister's house .

Does your dad have internet access?

I normally get my fiancee to explain any phone or iPad stuff to my parents as she is better at communicating the techie stuff in non techie terms than I am. My parents are smart people they are very conservative adopters when it comes to moving to new techie things.
