How much data does the BBC radio app use? Seems a bit hungry having just played around with it for a few minutes.

disclaimer: I am a tech know nothing so apologies if this is a dumb question

Don't forget though, it won't use your data allowance at all if you're connected to a wifi network.

Assuming you can set to run on WiFi only? From what I recall you can't monitor data usage by app on the iPhone so just keep an eye on the total usage.

Mike I think there is an app that monitors your usage, well that is what I have just been shown.

Please see my disclaimer from original post.

If you are with O2 they definitely do an app called My O2 that will show your data usage in the current billing period.
