While the abstract side of data usage limits is important, the essential part

is that you think about how these various scenarios could manifest on real

devices. If you have a corporate plan, knowing the data limits and what

happens when they’re exceeded will give you a big leg up. What should you

suspect when a user turns up at the end of the month with a device that

works fine over Wi-Fi? Or a traveling employee says she keeps getting calls

from colleagues asking why she hasn’t weighed in on an important e-mail

discussion that hasn’t turned up on her device, despite a good connection? A

quick check to see whether the user is over the plan limit could spare both of

you hours of troubleshooting.

GPS and Location Services Problems

Sometimes the location services on mobile devices will be better at finding

where you aren’t than where you are. Some inaccuracy can be explained by

the hardware a device has available; a Wi-Fi-only tablet with no GPS can get

only a general location.

Symptoms of location issues can vary depending on what apps are trying

to use location services. Photos might end up tagged with the wrong location,

or the coffee shop you picked because it was closest might actually be further

away than your device suggests. A navigation app might have trouble

identifying your location at all, or it might be sure it knows where you are
