## Data Usage Reviews in South Africa

### ****- "Efficient data usage app right here"
It is affordable and it works. I need say no more.
-- His vow, 2022-06-21

### ***-- "Not accurate"
Good UI, but not accurate. App shows 94% of my data used which was not true according to the actual account usage of sim data.
-- rustymh, 2019-05-21

### ***-- "David Bowes"
Excellent esp if tethering without data bundles.

You've got to add a wifi real time counter in the Today Widget as well; besides that the app is really good.

### ****- "Essential App"
It's a great app. Essential to my iPhone. It's accurate - give or take a megabyte or two. 

Something that can be improved is it to be automatically updated instead of having to open the app each time to reset each days could take and the badge icon. Otherwise it would get 5/5.
