Removed apps - Data Usage

[Andy Bell]

Hi,

I was just taking a look at my data usage on my Nexus 4 and noticed that 'Removed apps' is the 2nd highest candidate for data usage, from the 19th Feb to the 4th March it's used 47.76 mb and I cant for the life in me figure out why. All the data hit has used is 'background' data, is hasn't use any 'foreground' data at all.

I am on a limited data 500mb pm at the moment so data is pretty precious to me!

So if anyone has seen this before can you help me out?

Thanks.

Andy.

Think I may have figured it out actually.

So removed Apps could be for apps that have been used and then deleted in the data cycle I'm looking at.............................if that makes sense?!

That is exactly what it is Andy. Data that has been used by apps you have since removed.
