Define internet connections

Does your network service provider charge you a fixed fee for data transfer or on a pay-as-you-use

basis? Change the WiFi and mobile data settings to reduce your data costs while roaming and at home.

Important: Use encryption to increase the security of your WiFi connection. Using encryption

reduces the risk of others accessing your data.

Using a WiFi connection is generally faster and less expensive than using a mobile data connection.

If both WiFi and mobile data connections are available, your phone uses the WiFi connection.

Use a mobile data connection when roaming

Connecting to the internet when roaming, especially when abroad, can raise data costs substantially.

provider doesn't own or operate.

Tip: You can also follow your data usage with the data sense app.
