Can someone who exclusively uses their phone for Uber please post real data usage correlated to hours per month you drive?

Thanks.

Yep ... I used 1.8 GB data last month ... and was online for 243 hours. Not sure how many hours I drove ... but should give you an idea. BTW - I have unlimited data plan with Sprint

Are there any changes now that the new version shows surge data when you are offline ? I just got a huge data bill for last month ...

There's a feature in the app where you can set it to send you a notification as of when there's a certain level of surge in price. You should check that out.

I have mine set really low and it has NEVER notified me... Ever.

My account is about to reset in 2 days, and I was going to find out the same thing you are asking... With one small difference. I am wondering how much less it will be since I'm using offline google maps to save data...

Mine does send me sometimes. I don't know if it always work though.

What kinds of overage are you talking about? What was the amount of data you were charged for?

It's probably maps, it uses a lot of data.

You can actually download a pretty good chunk of your area in Google Maps to use offline...

Yes. I used less than half the data this month compared to the past two.
