On my work phone if I disable mobile data and use my WiFi at home, can employers still see what I’ve been searching?
Might, might not. All depends on what sort of phone you use and what sort of software your company is using. It is technically very well possible that all your network traffic flows through the systems of your company, independent from you using mobile data or WiFi. See it a bit as a VPN tunnel. Like this they can enforce the same rules for company workstation as for company phones.Most countries / jurisdictions allow companies to monitor and prevent the abuse of their property and you need to be informed about the level of monitoring. I observed from inside certain companies that did not take this privacy protection very serious and the IT security guys were checking during lunch to see with GPS details which colleagues were having lunch with each other and they red their messages.Rule of the thumb, if you have the financial flexibility get yourself a private phone next to your company phone. Do private messaging and searches on the private phone and vice-versa. You would not be the first person getting in trouble for a still open tab on their phone browser of something whatched at home that reopens the next day at work and refreshes the screen….All are better off if you separate private and professional business.
How can I disable data, but still be able to send text messages on my iPhone?
Text messaging doesn't use "data" as defined by cell phone networks-- if you can make and receive calls, you can send text messages, even if you can't connect to the internet.To disable data on an iPhone, look in Settings under General --> Network. Turn off "Cellular Data". It's probably not necessary to also explicitly turn off 3G networking but go ahead and do that too.With this change the phone will connect to the voice network and send and receive text messages. It will also work with WiFi, when available. It won't use any cell network data.Keep in mind that accessing the voice network may still be very expensive, depending on who your phone carrier is and what countries you're traveling in.
If I turn off my mobile data on my phone will my text messages still come in ?
SMS - yes. SMS doesn't use the internet. It actually uses your cellular voice channel, and most plans give you unlimited SMS texts nowadays. Skype, FB Messenger, Line, etc. - yes, but only if your phone is connected to Wifi. Turning off mobile data just means your phone will not be able to use the internet if there's no Wifi. This also means your phone will not use up your monthly data quota.
Does turning airplane mode on disable data usage on verizon?
Airplane mode disables ALL data usage. So it not only disables your mobile data, but it also disables your WiFi connection. Turning on WiFi WILL turn airplane mode off. So your only option to stop using up your data is to turn off your mobile data in general (you can find this in the settings in the data usage tab). Hope this helped.
If mobile data is on and we also turn on wi-fi, will mobile data still be consumed?
Normally your phone has a thing called a connection manager which maps IP flows (that's tech talk for data) to the best available connection.When you have both mobile data and WiFi available it will normally select WiFi for data services while still using the mobile connection for voice.This meams that normally it fine to leave both mobile data and WiFi on and trust your phone to select WiFi when its available.There are a few cases where this is not a good idea however.If you are connected to a really busy WiFi access point then you might get better service if you switch offf WiFi and use mobile data only. This will be counted as mobile data usage and so you need to be aware if this is a good idea.If you are roaming in another country that charges a lot for data then it might be better to switch off mobile data and only leave on WiFi. This avoids surprises when you think you are using WiFi but the link dropped and the connection manager starts using mobile dataIf your battery is nearly empty, you only want the phone for voice calls and there are lots of WiFi around you then it might be better to switch off WiFi. The difference is not very much with modern phones but it might help.Some phones (only Android?) still consume a small amount of cellular data even when data is switched off. To completely cut off data you might need to dig into your phone's settings.
Is it true that Jio calling stop working if we off mobile data on phone?
First of all you need to understand that there are two types of 4G phones available in market.LTE phones - Support only data services over 4G network.VoLTE phones - Support calling and data services on 4G network.So, you need to check if your device is VoLTE (Voice over LTE) or simple LTE. If you are using a VoLTE phone then you don’t need to turn on the mobile data, you can call easily as you do on a 3G/2G network.But, if you are using a LTE phone, then it is necessary for you to keep mobile data on in order to enjoy the calling services. And to use the calling services you need to have the Jio4GVoice app, using which you can do HD Voice and Video Calls.Thank You.Source : Google, Shubham Utkarsh (शुभम उत्कर्ष) (शुभम उत्कर्ष)
