Q: Why is notifications still using cell data on wifi over night when no notifications appear?
since the iOS 8 update I'm getting data usage notices. I've identified most of the tricky settings hidden. Without many articles from other (non apple) sources no one Would know how to reset many settings they had previously set. So disappointed with how this happened. If it changed this much you should have had a set up to walk people through and explain your changes that are going to drain your battery and charge you data overages.
SO I have just notifications left. I've emptied the notification center and turned everything off except mail, phone, and messages. Over night while at home on wifi I'm showing large cellular data usage when the phone is on do not disturb, mail is on manual, and no one has messaged or called. I only have badges on for these three apps and no badges show yet I'm using cellular data for nothing.
SImple fix is to not prioritize notifications for cellular data with out an option for us without unlimited plans.
II'm so user and been doing more than an average iPhone user should have to do to stay within my data plan.
iPhone 5c, iOS 8.1.1, notifications using cellular
