Geared more toward Cellular Usage

I should have read the description better. I don’t care about cellular usage. I work at a site for an extended period of time and we have Starlink. Each person is granted 3gb of data each day and you basically get in trouble if you go over. So I was hoping to be able to monitor WiFi usage and be able to set a daily alert once it reached a certain amount.

Accurate and Simple

The app works well with intuitive settings. Simple view that allows for a quick view on the status of your data.

Greedy app

A subscription to change billing periods? What a joke.

MISLEADING - PAID SUBSCRIPTION REQUIRED

Since ‘Focus’ modes have been available on iOS, I I have been on the lookout for a simple, but colourful widget I could pin to the Home Screen that would help me keep tabs on my remaining data when a ‘travel based Focus mode’ was active. Whilst I have found plenty, none were pretty - except this one. So finally, and for 99p, I thought I had finally found it!

After installing I was quite surprised to see that the widget is only available with a paid subscription!?

Unfortunately, there are already free apps out there that offer pretty much the same functionality as the app you actually charge for, but those have a subscription for extra features/widget instead. Not both. I tend to avoid subscriptions where I can, or unless it offers something really special - in fact I’m not alone, I saw an article yonks ago which showed an overwhelming percentage of the population prefer one off purchases vs subscriptions…there’s even a few reviews here stating the same thing!

So cmon Dev, you are already charging money for the app…do you have to charge a subscription as well?

Inaccurate measurement of data usage

Unfortunately, the amount of data usage as measured by the app and the amount of data displayed by the iPhone (the counters are reset at the same time) sometimes differ greatly. However, my provider reminds me of my remaining data allowance in exactly the same way as the data displayed on the iPhone. :(

unfortunately, it does not support family sharing or sharing for multiple devices under one Apple ID

Bait-and-Switch – $0.99 Gets You Almost Nothing But Aggressive Upsell

UPDATE in response to developer:

Thanks for the reply, but I have a screenshot of the pop-up triggered when I tapped “Font.” It promoted a Bonus Gift with Winter Wonderland and DONKEY Bounce — clear game content inside a paid app. Whether technically an ad or cross-promo, it’s irrelevant — it didn’t belong there and disrupted use of a utility I paid for.

Also, your claim that the subscription model is clearly stated on the product page is weak, to put it generously. At no point was it made obvious that $0.99 only unlocked a crippled version, with nearly everything useful locked behind a second payment.

That’s the problem — not privacy, not ads per se, but a misleading upsell loop in a paid download.

Please just own the issue. It’s not about technicalities — it’s about trust.

-----

I paid $0.99 thinking I was unlocking a full-featured data tracker. Instead, I got a barebones version with basic visuals and no real utility. To access what most people would reasonably expect from a paid app — like usage history, push alerts, multiple plans, or billing period customization — you have to subscribe again for $0.99/month or $9.99/year.

Even worse, I got hit with a pop-up ad promoting unrelated games. In a paid app. That’s unacceptable.

There was no clear indication upfront that the $0.99 purchase was just a teaser. It feels deceptive — a bait-and-subscribe model pretending to be a one-time paid app.

Requesting a refund. If you’re looking for a trustworthy data tracker, look elsewhere unless you’re prepared to pay twice for basic functionality and still get ads.

Moving features behind paywall

Data man used to be great. Now the developers are moving previously available features behind a subscription paywall. Considering I was an original purchaser of this app, I find this move sleazy. Stay away from this app until they remove this. I don’t mind subscription services when they add capabilities, but you don’t remove them to add value to your subscription. You’ve lost me as a customer.

Tandeta, nie polecam

Tandeta, nie ma pokazanej najważniejszej funkcji czyli zużycia na bieżąco w formie widżetu. Placisz 5 zł za aplikację w której się dowiadujesz że później i tak musisz 50 zł zapłacić za pakiet żeby móc korzystać. Nie polecam badziewie jakich mało
