除非您有无限数据计划，否则您应该知道如何限制Android智能手机上的数据使用，尤其是考虑到当今需要大量数据的应用程序以及我们不断检查它们的趋势。幸运的是，Android具有监控移动数据使用情况并限制您使用多少蜂窝数据以避免额外费用的内置功能。我们知道完全控制您的数据使用很重要，因此本教程说明了如何在您的Android设备上设置数据限制：
注意：(NOTE:)本指南适用于Android 10，它是在诺基亚 5.3(Nokia 5.3)智能手机上创建的。如果您不知道自己的Android版本，请阅读如何在智能手机或平板电脑上查看 Android 版本(How to check the Android version on your smartphone or tablet)。所有 Android 设备上的过程都相似，但您可能会遇到一些小的差异，具体取决于您的设备制造商。
如何在 Android 上检查数据使用情况
Android 会监控您的整体数据使用情况以及各个应用的使用情况。要访问它们，请打开 Android 设置(open Android Settings)并点击网络和互联网(Network & internet)。在某些智能手机（例如华为(Huawei)的智能手机）上，改为点击移动网络。(Mobile network)
在下一个屏幕上，点击数据使用(Data usage)。
在数据使用(Data usage)屏幕顶部，您可以查看当前使用周期内使用的移动数据总量。您的使用量应与您的每月计费周期相对应，以返回相关数据。如果没有，请不要担心。我们将在下一节介绍如何更改它。
如需更详细地了解您的移动数据使用情况，请点击“应用数据使用情况("App data usage)”。
在“应用程序数据使用”("App data usage")屏幕上，您可以看到在分配期间您的总移动数据使用量图表 - 我们刚拿到我们的新手机，您可以从它的使用周期看出。
在图表下，您可以按数据使用顺序查看您的应用程序 - 使用数据最多的应用程序首先显示。点击任何应用程序都会显示更多详细信息。
您还可以从Network & internet下的(Network & internet)移动网络(Mobile network)设置访问此屏幕（但名称略有不同）。
然后，在下一个屏幕上，点击“应用数据使用”("App data usage")选项。
这会将您带到“移动数据使用”屏幕，该屏幕提供与("Mobile data usage")“应用数据使用”("App data usage")完全相同的信息和选项。
如何在Android上更改数据使用周期(Android)
数据使用周期每月在您设置的日期重置。此日期应与您的计费周期相匹配，以帮助您准确了解您使用的数据量。您的Android(Android)显示使用数据的当前时间间隔显示在使用的数据总量下，在网络和互联网(Network & internet)设置的数据使用(Data usage)屏幕上。要更改数据使用周期，请访问“数据警告和限制("Data warning & limit)”。
在下一个屏幕上，您需要点击“应用数据使用周期”("App data usage cycle")选项。
或者，您还可以在“移动数据使用”("Mobile data usage")和“应用数据使用”("App data usage")屏幕顶部查看您当前的数据使用周期。点击齿轮会将您带到与上面相同的“数据警告和限制”("Data warning & limit")屏幕。
点击“应用数据使用周期”("App data usage cycle")会打开“使用周期重置日期”("Usage cycle reset date")弹出窗口。向上或向下滑动(Swipe)以滚动浏览可用日期。当您找到要重置数据计数器的日期时，点击设置(Set)。
我们将每月 20 日设置为重置移动数据计数器的日期。
您的Android会立即在相应的屏幕上显示新的数据使用周期。
如何在您的Android智能手机上设置数据使用限制
如果您设置了每月数据使用限制，则您的Android会在达到该限制后立即禁用移动数据。在“数据警告和限制”屏幕上，点击("Data warning & limit")“设置数据限制”("Set data limit")选项旁边的开关以将其激活。
在下一个屏幕上，您可以阅读有关“限制数据使用("Limiting data usage)”的更多信息。点击“确定(OK)”以确认您的选择。
您将返回到“数据警告和限制”("Data warning & limit")屏幕，其中“设置数据限制”("Set data limit")开关已打开。您现在可以编辑下方的数据限制选项。(Data limit)点击它。
在“设置数据使用限制”("Set data usage limit")弹出窗口中，您可以设置您打算在一个月内使用的最大数据量。为避免任何意外，我们建议您设置低于数据计划实际获得的数据限制。点击默认值以显示键盘并插入您要使用的数据使用限制。
为避免进行任何数学运算，您可以从下拉菜单中选择MB和GB 。
当您决定新的数据使用限制后，点击设置(Set)。
您设置的新值现在显示在Data limit下。
如何在Android上设置数据使用警告(Android)
您还可以设置数据使用警告，让您知道何时使用了一定数量的数据。这可以用作预防措施，以确保您不会超出您的数据计划。在“数据警告和限制”屏幕上，点击("Data warning & limit")“设置数据警告”("Set data warning")选项旁边的开关以启用它。
开关打开后，您可以编辑下方的数据警告选项。(Data warning)
点击(Tap)为您的数据使用警告设置一个值。我们认为当您达到 50% 的数据限额时收到提醒会很方便。这样，您可以检查数据使用周期结束的时间并相应地进行调整。完成后，点击设置(Set)。
或者，您也可以通过点击“数据使用(Data usage)”屏幕中使用的移动数据总量来更改何时收到有关数据的警告。
当您达到为警告设置的值时，您会收到来自Android的通知，其中包含当前的移动数据使用情况。我们将警告设置为 100 MB 并观看视频以获得如下所示的通知。有趣的是，Android会一直等到我们完成我们正在做的事情，并且只有在我们改变应用程序的焦点后才会提醒我们。
您每个月在Android上使用多少移动数据？
如果没有互联网接入，您的Android将非常有限，并且连接到公共Wi-Fi网络并不完全安全。如果您想充分利用您的Android智能手机，则需要移动数据计划，并且可以轻松监控您的数据使用情况以避免额外费用。在您关闭此页面之前，请告诉我们您为什么要限制您的Android数据使用量。您是否(Did)超出了您的数据限额？您每个月使用多少移动数据？多少才够？请在下面的评论中告诉我们。
How to check the data usage and limit it on Android
Unless you have an unlimited data plan, you should know how to limit data usagе on your Android smartрhone, especially considering today's data-hungry apps and oυr tendency to constantly check them. Luckily, Android has built-in features to monitor mobile data usage and restrict how much cellular data you're using to avoid additional costѕ. We know having full control over your dаta usage is important, so this tυtorial illustrates how to sеt a data limit on your Android device:
NOTE: This guide applies to Android 10, and it was created on a Nokia 5.3 smartphone. If you do not know your Android version, read How to check the Android version on your smartphone or tablet. The procedures are similar on all Android-powered devices, although you might come across some small differences, depending on your device's manufacturer.
How to check data usage on Android
Android monitors your overall data usage, as well as the usage of individual apps. To access them, open Android Settings and tap on Network & internet. On some smartphones, like those from Huawei, tap Mobile network instead.
On the next screen, tap on Data usage.
On top of the Data usage screen, you can see the total amount of mobile data used during the current usage cycle. Your usage should correspond to your monthly billing cycle to return relevant data. If it doesn't, don't worry. We cover how to change it in the next section.
For a more detailed overview of your mobile data usage, tap on "App data usage."
On the "App data usage" screen, you can see a graph of your total mobile data usage for the allotted period - we just got our new phone, as you can tell from its usage cycle.
Under the graph, you can see your apps in order of data usage - the apps using the most data are displayed first. Tapping on any app reveals more details.
You can also access this screen (but with a slightly different name) from the Mobile network settings under Network & internet.
Then, on the next screen, tap the "App data usage" option.
This takes you to the "Mobile data usage" screen, which offers exactly the same info and options as the "App data usage" one.
How to change the data usage cycle on Android
The data usage cycle resets every month on the date you set. This date should match your billing cycle to help you get an accurate overview of how much data you're using. The current time interval for which your Android displays usage data is shown under the total amount of data used, on the Data usage screen of the Network & internet settings. To change the data usage cycle, access "Data warning & limit."
On the next screen, you need to tap on the "App data usage cycle" option.
Alternatively, you can also see your current data usage cycle on top of the "Mobile data usage" and "App data usage" screens. Tapping the cogwheel takes you to the same "Data warning & limit" screen seen above.
Tapping on "App data usage cycle" opens the "Usage cycle reset date" pop-up. Swipe up or down to scroll through the available dates. When you find the date on which you want to reset your data counter, tap on Set.
We set the 20th of every month as the date to reset the mobile data counter.
Your Android immediately displays the new data usage cycle on the appropriate screens.
How to set a data usage limit on your Android smartphone
If you set a monthly data usage limit, your Android disables mobile data as soon as that limit is reached. On the "Data warning & limit" screen, tap on the switch next to the "Set data limit" option to activate it.
On the next screen, you can read more about "Limiting data usage." Tap OK to confirm your choice.
You are returned to the "Data warning & limit" screen, where the "Set data limit" switch is turned on. You can now edit the Data limit option underneath. Tap on it.
In the "Set data usage limit" pop-up, you can set the maximum amount of data you intend to use in a month. To avoid any surprises, we suggest setting a lower data limit than what you actually get with your data plan. Tap on the default value to reveal a keypad and insert the data usage limit you want to use.
To avoid doing any math, you can choose between MB and GB from the dropdown menu.
When you are done deciding on a new data usage limit, tap on Set.
The new value you set is now displayed under Data limit.
How to set a data usage warning on Android
You can also set a data usage warning that lets you know when a certain amount of data has been used. This can be used as a precaution to ensure you do not go over your data plan. On the "Data warning & limit" screen, tap on the switch next to the "Set data warning" option to enable it.
As soon as the switch is on, you can edit the Data warning option underneath.
Tap to set a value for your data usage warning. We think it's convenient to receive an alert when you reach 50% of your data allowance. That way, you can check how long until the data usage cycle comes to an end and adjust accordingly. When you are done, tap on Set.
Alternatively, you can also change when you get a warning about your data by tapping the total amount of mobile data used in the Data usage screen.
When you reach the value set for your warning, you get a notification from your Android with the current mobile data usage. We set our warning to 100 MB and watched videos to get the notification shown below. It's interesting to note that Android waited until we finished what we were doing and alerted us only after we changed the focus from our app.
How much mobile data do you use on Android every month?
Without internet access, your Android is quite limited, and connecting to public Wi-Fi networks is not exactly safe. A mobile data plan is required if you want to make the most of your Android smartphone, and it's easy to monitor your data usage to avoid additional charges. Before you close this page, let us know why you want to limit your Android data usage. Did you go over your data allowance? How much mobile data do you use on a regular month? How much would be enough? Let us know in the comments below.
