Doesn't work

Doesn't display as advertised. Junk

Used to work

This app used to work great, but now it does not seem to at all. Darn.
It's the only one I've found with a badge, which was really helpful.

Previous review:
I don't understand the inaccurate negative comments about this app. Maybe the settings are not easy enough to find, but it is easy to change the billing cycle dates.
The badge showing remaining data (or used data) does update dynamically without opening the app. From another review, it seems that Location Services must be on for this to work.
If the badge is not showing up, go into the settings and turn it on.
It seems like the main fault of this app is the lack of instructions, and people not being able to figure how to set it up.
I will say I've had a problem since the last update of the app forgetting the settings every month. Hopefully that will get fixed.
