Developed for customers in emerging markets, Google's new app Datally helps save mobile data. The service lets you track data usage and is available worldwide for Android devices.
The Datally app helps you understand your data by showing your usage over different time periods and suggesting personalized ways to save mobile data. The Data Saver feature enables you to control your data by blocking background data-sucking and track how your apps use data in real-time, similar to a speedometer. The Android application also notifies you when you can access public wifi so you can save data too. Following a trial run in the Phillippines, the app formerly referred to as Triangle helped users save up to 30% of their data.
