    Device monitor have very useful information. But I would love to have a Tab that sorts app by Data consumed (need options to toggle between wifi and cellular). Wouldn't that be cool?

    I can find fishy applications that way and throw them away.

    It would be nice but there are apps such as Fire Chest Usage for that. Right now I don't think we can expect every little functionality to be baked in the OS; there are bigger things to take care of.

    I've tried Fire Chest a few times, it's always negatively impacted my battery. I haven't noticed that it shows per-app usage, but that may be due to my closing it after a matter of hours after battery life plummets.

    It takes a bit of time, but you can view how much data each app is using in Device Monitor by tapping on whichever app you're curious about.
    Shouldn't Device monitor have a Tab for Data monitor?-img_20140217_064216.png

    Actually, you are right about it not showing per-app usage; my bad. I was just thinking of wifi and cellular data usage. Apologies to the OP.

    I'm aware of this, that's exactly the reason I thing this could be made available in a new tab. Data is already there, I'm just asking for a better visualisation :-)

    I completely agree, I'm not keen on hunting for rogue apps accessing the network. I'd like that info readily accessible so I can deal with it quickly.

    Does threads like this have merits? I mean does BB takes input from these forums?

    They say they do.. a lot of the features/ bug reports originate from here. I'm sure they have ears around these forums...
    This specific request has been put in a hundred features request threads before, so I'm quite positivity that it's gonna come in the next major update.
