Around 400MB/month and that's if it's a heavy month. Lol. I don't stream music (all my songs are stored on my phone), I almost never need GPS, and I barely watch YouTube videos or anything when I'm out. All I ever really do is text people and browse social media (Facebook/Twitter/Instagram). And when I'm at home or work, I use Wi-Fi.
 
We had Time Warner cable internet for years... it was intermittent, slow, and throttled every night like clockwork. Switching to AT&T LTE for everything was a huge improvement in reliability and speed. I get 50mbps download any time of day, and all the way up to my data cap.

People pay for home internet, cable/satellite tv, and then phone plans on top of that... and they act like 'I only pay blahblahblah per month for 2GB data on my phone, and I never go over!!' Like their home wifi is free or something!
Uh no, dude, you're paying for it one way or another.

In Canada at least you wouldn't believe what they charge for data. Believe me, unlimited high speed home internet is much cheaper than any data plan that offers more than 4GB a month!
 
YouTube, PBS Kids, Apple Music, Flickr, iCloud Photos, app updates (MS Word & Excel alone are 1GB), iTunes movies/tv purchases.
Wow. That looks like mobile data as replacement of every possible internet source.
 
720p is the video resolution, but YouTube compresses everything so you lose quality with that. Last time I checked, 720p and 1080p video had about 128kbps audio. Apple Music streams 256kbps AAC audio and Google streams 320kbps MP3 audio.

Wow! This is kind of a revelation for me, because I had no clue. Is 128kbps that bad? I really haven't noticed it being bad, but it's all I use so I wouldn't know I guess. I use the Apple ear buds, btw.
 
Between 3GB and 4 GB. I have 32GB on myphone and SD card of 64GB so Music and video that I want to watch go on my card. We have wifi at work and home so that suits me fine.
 
Between the above two above posts I'm assuming that you have a different plan than what AT&T has advertised on their website right? Because according to: https://www.att.com/shop/wireless/data-plans.html that would be at least $375 per month in data. I'm not sure how much Time Warner internet costs, but I would assume it's not that much.

We had the 30GB share plan, which is still available, but they doubled it for free during a promotion. It's $250 a month for two phones, an iPad, and a mobile hotspot.

Basic cable tv + internet alone was $180 per month, plus $150 to AT&T for our wireless plan. So we're actually paying less now, in total.
 
Less than 1GB/mo on my iPhone. On the LTE iPad which I also carry with me everywhere, around 15GB/mo and that's with barely any video streaming (just some occasional YouTube).

Checked the router stats and at home, we apparently use around 120GB per week.
