If I'm right then bandwidth is the maximum amount of data transmitted over an Internet connection in a given amount of time, it's how much information you receive every second. It's measured in Mbps.
To monitor bandwidth usage on a per app basis then you might use

Why is access to data usage restricted for these apps?

Something is chewing up more data than it should and upon looking at the cellular data usage screen, there's about 150 MB unaccounted for. I see that the usage from several apps shows restricted, and that's my concern. I have not used any of these apps in the past week so it's unjam if they are using sim much data, potentially in the background. Any insight into this would be helpful.
