In this day and age, staying connected is essential. However, whether we like it or not, most mobile data plans put a limit on our data usage each month.

Browsing through Social Media may be fine, but downloading and streaming content can easily eat up on your monthly data allocation.

Reaching your data cap means that you cannot stay online for the rest of the month. Worse, you may be allowed to go online but it also means a huge bill by month’s end.

1. Go to Settings → Connections → Data Usage
2. From there, you can set a limit or data cap for a certain time period or billing cycle (a week, month, etc).
3. You may also press the Menu option and tap “Restrict Background Data Usage.” This option will help you manage your data usage, especially for apps that run in the background (such as Instagram and Messenger). However, this also means that the apps may stop working properly.

To check WiFi usage on the Motorola One Vision, follow these steps:

1. Go to Settings → Connections → Data Usage
2. From there, tap on the Menu button (3 vertical dots on the upper-right corner of the screen).

Alternatively, some Android handsets may need to follow these steps below:

1. Go to Settings → WiFi & Internet → Data Usage
2. Tap WiFi Data Usage to view WiFi stats.
3. From this menu, you can also view data/WiFi usage per app.

The methods above generally work for most Android phone devices. Some handsets may have slight variations, you should just look for something similar Connections, Networks, or Data Usage menus.

Huawei users however have to follow a different process. Below is a short guide to check data and WiFi usage for Huawei phone users:

To use your phone as a WiFi hotspot, tether it via USB or via Bluetooth, then go to Settings – Wireless and Network – Mobile hotspot and tethering.

2) Mobile/WiFi Hotspot – To turn your phone into a WiFi hotspot, press Configure WiFi hotspot. You will then be asked to enter a Network SSID (this is your own name for the WiFi hotspot). Then choose Security and lastly, choose a password (this is password for your WiFi hotspot which you will enter on your computer).

If you want to clear your website browser history, cache or cookies on the Motorola One Vision because you don’t want other people to snoop around (or you just want to clean up your list), then that is actually very easy to do. Just follow these steps:

1. First, open the browser you use and look for the Menu or “More” button/icon.
2. Then go to History → Clear Browsing Data.

This method generally works if you use Chrome on your phone. If you have multiple devices that use your Google Chrome account, you might notice that your browser history, cache and cookies are also reflected on other devices. These may get deleted too if you delete them from your phone.

If you don’t want this to happen, you can turn off sync on your device. This means that the browser history, cache, cookies, and other private data will just be removed from your phone alone.

1. Make sure you have already logged in your Google Account on Chrome.
2. On Chrome, click on your Profile / Account icon (located at the top right portion).
