Mobile data usage calculator

Estimates monthly mobile data needs from weekly hours per activity at editable rates, then projects pace, daily budget, and the run-out day.

Enter hours to estimate the month.

Plan maths runs in decimal GB because carriers bill that way, and the GiB row converts so it can be read against your phone's settings screen, which counts binary units. The rate figures carry their basis: Netflix and Zoom publish theirs, the music figure is derived from Spotify's 320 kbps bitrate, and the rest are working assumptions you should tune against a month of real usage from your carrier's app. Downloads and system updates are not modeled at all; they can dwarf a week of streaming.

A typical week

Video streamingh/wkGB/h

published: Netflix quotes about 3 GB an hour for HD

Video callsh/wkGB/h

published: Zoom quotes about 1.2 GB an hour for group video, both directions counted

Music streamingh/wkGB/h

derived: Spotify very high quality, 320 kbps: 0.32 Mbps x 3600 / 8000

Social feedsh/wkGB/h

estimate: Working assumption; feeds with autoplay video vary a lot

Web browsingh/wkGB/h

estimate: Working assumption, about 60 MB an hour of mixed pages

Navigationh/wkGB/h

estimate: Working assumption, map tiles are small

Online gamingh/wkGB/h

estimate: Working assumption for play only; downloads are separate

Used so far and the period day go together; with both filled the projection below shows your pace, the safe daily rate, and the day the allowance dies.

Hours run 0 to 168 a week, rates 0 to 100 GB per hour, the period 1 to 90 days, and the allowance up to 100,000 GB. Leave it empty for an unlimited plan.
