Mobile phones commonly use mobile data transmission nowadays. Besides internet browsers and e-mail clients as such, maps, widgets, assisted GPS and a number of other applications may be secretly accessing data transmission as well. These applications typically request enabling access to the internet upon first use and then continue to automatically access it, even while roaming where data transmission is significantly more expensive. The fees often reach numbers comparable to a flight-ticket cost. Roaming Guard for Nokia Symbian S60 smartphones, which was shortly before introduced to the market, prevents all problems with unwanted access to data transmission.
Roaming Guard is unique application, which is useful for anyone who
travels abroad,
lives or works near a border,
resides in national or regional roaming.
Roaming Guard simply and reliably guards data connections and prevents unpleasant surprises, like being presented an astronomical bill for data roaming.
Roaming Guard monitors the application access to the internet and, according to selected settings, Always allowed, Disabled while roaming, or Always disabled, enables or denies this access.
