Bytes helps you keep track of your data usage. It shows you how much data you’ve used on both the mobile network (3G, 4G, LTE, etc.) and WiFi. Updated for iOS 10, the app features a beautiful minimalist design. With the ability to set data limits, monitor your daily data usage, send nightly notifications and more, Bytes helps you stay informed about your data usage. Bytes uses Background App Refresh to keep track of your data usage - it works best when left open in the background. Tab bar icons by Icons8 (http://www.icons8.com/). Note: Bytes does not take into account any carrier-specific promotions. Furthermore, your carrier and / or ISP reserves the final word regarding how much data your device consumed over any given period of time. Bytes works best on 64-bit devices.
