Methods, Systems and Applications for Managing Wireless Services on a Wireless Device
The application is directed to a method and system for tracking and managing data usage on a wireless device. A graphical user interface is displayed on a wireless device for tracking and managing data usage over a predetermined time. A request is received via the graphical user interface to set an alert. The alert indicates when the data usage exceeds a predefined value. A determination is made whether the data usage exceeds the predefined value. Further, an alert is transmitted to the wireless device.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MONITORING AND REPORTING A PERSON'S PHONE USAGE WHILE DRIVING
A system and method for monitoring, analyzing, and reporting cell phone usage. Multiple sensors provide inputs related to the interaction between a cell phone user and a cell phone. The inputs from the sensors are compared to normative data, and an output indicative of the operating environment of the cell phone is provided.

Budgeting and quota management system for data consumption
Systems and methods may provide for establishing a data usage budget based on one or more of user input and historical usage data, wherein the data usage budget distinguishes between usage types and distinguishes between connection types. Additionally, a data usage of one or more client devices may be monitored in accordance with the data usage budget. In one example, the usage types are designated as one or more of a high bandwidth usage and a low bandwidth usage, and the connection types are designated as one or more of a capped connection and a non-capped connection.

Communications techniques
Disclosed herein is a method of generating a record of a call, the method, performed by a first device, comprising: performing a voice communications call with a second electronic device over a first communications channel; receiving and/or transmitting, during the voice communications call, call content data over a second communications channel; generating call details in dependence on the voice communications call; and generating a record of the call, wherein the record comprises the call details stored in association with the call content data. Advantageously, each generated call record provides an entry point to access data or to search information related to each call.
Wireless access point having metering capability and metering display
The disclosure provides a system and method for metering on a prepaid wireless access point the amount of data transferred between a wireless device and the Internet and inhibiting further data transmission when the amount of prepaid data available reaches or drops below a pre-determined threshold. Specifically, the wireless access point includes a metering client to track one of data usage or an amount of prepaid data available. When the metering client indicates that the amount of data available has dropped below a pre-determined threshold, the wireless access point inhibits further data transmission.
