PreCentral: Track your data usage with Netstat (homebrew)

netstatIn a world where unlimited data plans are no longer available and everyone is watching their data usage, having a way to keep track of your data usage on the device has become increasingly important. While other platforms have a native way to track this, even showing you daily data usage or usage by app, webOS has no such functionality. Most cellular carriers have codes your can dial to check (e.g. *3282# for AT&T), but even that will only show your cellular data usage. Instead, you can install the homebrew app Netstat from either Preware or webOS Quick Install that will track your Wi-Fi, Cellular, and Bluetooth data separately. The app even has preferences to allow you to set cellular data Traffic Limit and specify what day of the month you want the app to reset your data. So, if you need to keep track of your cellular data usage, or are just curious how much data you use across both Wi-Fi and your cell network, check out Netstat. And for those that are worried, there has been no noticeable impact to battery life while using Netstat

    • Question: When a device connects to the HDMI, the select option is no longer available.?

      Must have been an update a little bit ago, but for a month + now, when I plug in a new source to the TV, a notification at the top appears saying, "HDMI 1 now available". It used to be when you did this, a notification would pop up and would let you scroll over to select the new source. Whereas now, it just tells you something has been plugged in, giving you no option to say yes switch to that. It doesn't seem to make sense to remove this feature? Any information would be appreciated.
