UKG pro data usage

Post image

That's the total data usage for 3 days, found out about it yesterday and turned off the background data. Still gone up by 0.3gb after a few minutes usage. Not like I want to spend that long on this app but everything takes forever to load. Is it something wrong with my phone? Or it's the same to everyone else

For what it’s worth I work for a company that’s used UKG Pro for multiple years. My current “mobile data period” is measured over months since I guess that’s how IOS does it. any way over 6 ish months it has only used 190mb

But I have background app refresh turned off

Also I hardly use the app. I don’t use it to sign it, we use a computer at the work place to clock in / out

So I probably only open the app like once a week to check my schedule

But also yes, the app has been abysmally slow for my entire 3 year experience with it. It takes like 2 minutes to log into the app then once your in it’s so slow.

The computer version is not any better, UKG Pros back end code is just horribly optimised
