iOS doesn’t show how much data is left.

Recently, i’ve bought some data. I want to check how much it is, and how much I have left, considering I still have about 2/3 GB left from a previous purchase. But this info doesn’t seem available on iOS for some reason. It only shows how much you’ve used. Wonder if there’s any way to see it anyways?

What do you mean by "bought some data"? Do you mean you increased your iCloud Storage? If so, start here:

If you mean something else, please explain.

I had a similar question, thanks for posting this.


I have seen the following response from many people and Apple: “Your phone has no way of knowing how much data is left on your cellular plan.”


Coming from an Android device, I was surprised iPhones didn’t have this simple function. On Android, one can manually input their cellular plan data limit, and set up automatic period resets (ie. monthly or weekly).


I don’t think Apple needs to match everything Android does, but I was shocked that my new iPhone doesn’t have this basic function.
