# Data Usage

The **Data Usage Report** collects data from the **Companion App** on devices by querying the Android OS. This OS provides a list of data used by apps over **Mobile Networks** and **Wi-Fi**, showing both app-wise usage and overall totals.

This report allows you to view aggregated data consumption across **mobile data** and **Wi-Fi** networks over different time periods, including **daily, weekly**, and **monthly** views.

#### **How to View the Data Usage Report**
