Track hotspot monitors the amount of data you’ve shared using the Android hotspot feature. Track hotspot can record the amount of data used by your hotspot and alert you when it reaches the limit you specify.
How to turn on Track hotspot
To turn on the Track hotspot feature, follow these steps:
- On your Android phone, open the Datally app.
