Describe the Feature you'd like
The Mobile data widget displays the data usage as follows:
Mobile data
800 MB
1,2 GB remaining
I'd like an option to swap the data, like this:
Mobile data available
1,2 GB
800 MB used
Why do you want this feature?
The main purpose of the widget should be to inform the user how much data volume is currently available. In the current widget, however, this information is subordinate. In contrast, the information placed on the top level about the volume used is actually only secondary information.
Additional context
No response
The widget was actually designed with the purpose of showing the data usage at a glance. Data remaining is only shown if the user has set a valid data plan, hence being the secondary option.
Data remaining is only shown if the user has set a valid data plan, hence being the secondary option.
As suggested by a good bunch of issues, there are many different data plans available in the world, with wildly different usage. Tying data display options to supported data plans only means many users will have to wait for their specific case to be recognized one by one. I suggest this option is made manually toggleable so that it allows anyone to choose how they want their data usage displayed, regardless of whether their data plan was thought about or not.
Broadly speaking, i hope more options are made readily available to the users regarding DataMonitor's presentation and behavior, as this will allow more people to customize the app to their needs, whithout having to overthink the specifics of each data plan the users may have contracted and would want to track with DataMonitor.
