Hey
It is happening again.
My iPad had been plugged in and on all night because I downloaded a huge app. I wanted to check out the Walking Dead game and it is almost 300meg so I started download during free data time.
This morning I checked the download and it finished. I checked my data allowance and it was 100% due to data refill each night.
I used Pages and then uploaded my work tp Dropbox, checked out Twitter using the Twitter app, did some web surfing. I checked the data allowance and it was 84%.
I turned off the wifi and started the game just to see if it was interesting then closed the app and locked the iPad which was plugged in.
Came back and turned on the wifi. A few minutes later I checked my data allowance and it went down to 64%. I did not do anything. Just turned it on, made some tea and came back.
I unplugged it and the data drain has stopped.
I checked iCloud in settings and it was off. Just the sign-in/register screen. I have not used my laptop at all since deleting iCloud. Pages is not set up to use iCloud and cellular is off.
I have checked Usage in Settings several times and nothing seems to be growing. We are talking over 100meg! So, this must be upload usage - correct?
Why?
