If you’re looking for ways to maximize what you get out of your AT&T service plan, it’s important to know a few key tips — just like the ones we’ve outlined below. From maximizing your data usage to signing up for optional AT&T services to using Wi-Fi strategically, there are plenty of ways to ensure you’re using your plan to the fullest and getting the most out of it. Keep reading to learn more about some different techniques you can start using today.

Understand Your AT&T Service Plan

Understanding the basics of your AT&T service plan, including coverage areas, data caps, and usage limits, can help you ensure that you’re not incurring overages. It can also help you create a plan for how you might modify your future usage to ensure you stick to the parameters of your contract.

AT&T offers a variety of different plans, including unlimited talk and text plans; unlimited talk, text and data plans; and unlimited talk, text, and LTE data plans.

You’ll want to know which plan you have and what your limits are for it. Find out if your plan has limited coverage; some may primarily offer service in parts of the United States, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, and parts of Canada. The costlier plans may have slightly more expansive coverage. Knowing this information can also help you make sure you’re not going over (and can help you choose a plan that meets your needs).

Maximize Your Data Usage.

When it comes to using your data, be mindful of your potential data caps and how much data you’re using each month. Make sure to use apps and services that use less data so you won’t hit your cap. Also, you might consider setting up automatic sync schedules for your devices so that you don’t have to worry about manually syncing everything every time you connect to a Wi-Fi network.

Mobile Hotspot lets you use your phone’s cellular connection to connect to the internet through a portable Wi-Fi hotspot device. This is great for when you need to work from away from home, during a power outage when your router won’t work, or if you just want to stay connected while on the go. Data Pass provides additional data limits for your monthly plan. This can be especially helpful if you are frequently streaming video or downloading large files.

There’s a variety of other optional AT&T services that you might be interested in. Check out the AT&T website to see all of the options that are available to you. You might also want to speak with an AT&T representative to see what services would work best for you.
