What is mobile data usage?

Mobile data usage refers to how much internet data your phone consumes when Wi-Fi isn’t available.

Every time you use maps, scroll social media, send messages, stream videos, or book rides, your phone uses mobile data through local networks. When traveling, mobile data becomes essential — because Wi-Fi isn’t always nearby, reliable, or fast.

Understanding your mobile data usage helps you estimate how much data you need for your trip — so you can choose the right data plan without running out or overpaying.

How to calculate your mobile data needs for travel

You don’t need to guess how much mobile data you’ll need for your trip.

Gohub estimates your daily mobile data usage based on how you actually use your phone — including navigation, messaging, social media, video streaming, and work calls.

Choose a usage profile that matches your travel style, or customize each activity manually. Based on your daily usage and trip length, we calculate your total data needs and suggest a plan that fits your trip.
