Data Usage in Trend Micro Mobile Security helps you manage how much Internet data you use from your cellular, roaming, or Wi-Fi services on your iPhone and iPad. It lets you know if you have exceeded or will soon exceed your data plan limits to avoid paying extra charges.
DISCLAIMER: The amount of data shown in Mobile Security may still differ from your actual usage, even if you always keep the app running in the background. If this happens, Trend Micro cannot take responsibility for any data fees your cellular network provider charges for your data plan. Contact your mobile network provider if you have questions or concerns about your cellular or roaming data usage.
