Apps using data in iOS9.1 while data to that app is restricted under Cellular data setting.

Hi


For the last couple of days I've been noticing that apps where the data for the app is switched off is still using data.

Are you guys aware of this , is there anything we can do ?

I've tried the usual.

Restarting the phone ,deleting the app and reinstalling but the problem just comes back.


Thanks

iPhone 5s, iOS 9.1

Try to reset your device. This won't delete your data stored on this device.

  • Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button
  • Press and hold on the Home button
  • Keep holding both buttons until the display turns off and back on with Apple logo on it.

Alternatively, you may go to Settings - General - Reset - Reset All Settings


If this does not help, restore your device to factory settings. Note that this will erase the data from your device.

Take a look this Apple Support article: Use iTunes to restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to factory settings - Apple Support.
