Data Usage gets Mobile/Wifi data usage values from mobile devices, on android it will fetch the data per app but due to current limitations on ios it can only give the total/complete values of overall data used.
- Initialize plugin and requests for permission
- Request Data usage stats
DataUsageModel.init() // Only Required for Android
List<DataUsageModel> dataUsage = await DataUsage.dataUsageAndroid(
withAppIcon: true, // if false `DataUsageModel.appIconBytes` will be null
dataUsageType: DataUsageType.wifi, // DataUsageType.wifi | DataUsageType.mobile
oldVersion: false // will be true for Android versions lower than 23 (MARSHMELLOW)
);This would return:
[ ...,
DataUsageModel({
String appName; //App's Name
String packageName; // App's package name
Uint8List appIconBytes; // Icon in bytes
int received; // Amount of data Received
int sent; // Amount of data sent/transferred
})
]Request for Total data usage on iOS devices
IOSDataUsageModel dataUsage = await DataUsage.dataUsageIOS();This would return:
IOSDataUsageModel({
int wifiCompelete, // Total Amount of wifi data (received + sent)
int wifiReceived, // Amount of wifi data Received
int wifiSent, // Amount of data sent/transferred
int wwanCompelete, // Total Amount of mobile data (received + sent)
int wwanReceived, // Amount of mobile data Received
int wwanSent // Amount of data sent/transferred
});Lots of PR's would be needed to make this plugin standard, as for iOS there's a permanent limitation for getting the exact data usage, there's only one way arount it and it's super complex.
