Re: WiFi only
If that is the case, most phones have the option to turn data off nowadays.

Re: WiFi only
Yabbut that prevents all apps from using data. Presumably he wants to restrict high-bandwidth apps to WiFi.FONGO_kris wrote:most phones have the option to turn data off nowadays.
The only way I know to do it is with an app, e.g. Data Usage Defender or Data Lock Lite. I'm sure there are others. I've not tried any of these so I can't comment on how well they work.

Re: WiFi only
I know about turning off data and have used it. My point was that some people might want to use VoIP when on WiFi only and use "Follow Me" when on the cell network.FONGO_kris wrote:If that is the case, most phones have the option to turn data off nowadays.

Re: WiFi only
My apologies for the slight misunderstanding JamesK, I was under the impression you had no data thus had no need for it to be enabled on the phone anyways. For people who do have data it certainly is a good suggestion and I see Steve has already replied as having added it to our feature request listJamesK wrote:I know about turning off data and have used it.
