I am going crazy, my phone is sucking up all the family shared data, I am a working mom and It it well known that Mom uses her phone the least , now all the sudden it has used up 7.85 gb of the 8 we share, I cut everything off on my phone until I can figure out why this is happening. I use fb on occasion and I use email to communicate with teachers.  Anyone who what has happened?

We want your phone to be fully functional. Do you know of any changes to your account recently? How long have you had your iPhone 6 Plus?

Look, at what is using a lot of data and uninstall any app with high usage.

back up the phone

Factory reset the phone

IF that doesn't fix the problem, contact Apple for a replacement.

    Sonya54, have you taking a look in Settings > Cellular - and scroll down to Use Cellular Data For:

Just below each App in there it will show how much Data that App has used.

  Also where you tend to use Facebook and Mail often. You might what to go to Settings > General > Storage & iCloud Usage > Manage Storage - to get an idea on how much Storage they are using.

Turn off Wifi Assist.
