NetworkStatsManager

public class NetworkStatsManager
extends Object

java.lang.Object
   ↳ android.app.usage.NetworkStatsManager

Provides access to network usage history and statistics. Usage data is collected in discrete bins of time called 'Buckets'. See NetworkStats.Bucket for details.

Queries can define a time interval in the form of start and end timestamps (Long.MIN_VALUE and Long.MAX_VALUE can be used to simulate open ended intervals). By default, apps can only obtain data about themselves. See the below note for special cases in which apps can obtain data about other applications.

Summary queries

querySummaryForDevice(int, String, long, long)

querySummaryForUser(int, String, long, long)

querySummary(int, String, long, long)

These queries aggregate network usage across the whole interval. Therefore there will be only one bucket for a particular key, state, metered and roaming combination. In case of the user-wide and device-wide summaries a single bucket containing the totalised network usage is returned.

History queries

queryDetailsForUid(int, String, long, long, int)

queryDetails(int, String, long, long)

These queries do not aggregate over time but do aggregate over state, metered and roaming. Therefore there can be multiple buckets for a particular key. However, all Buckets will have state NetworkStats.Bucket.STATE_ALL, defaultNetwork NetworkStats.Bucket.DEFAULT_NETWORK_ALL, metered NetworkStats.Bucket.METERED_ALL, roaming NetworkStats.Bucket.ROAMING_ALL.

NOTE: Calling querySummaryForDevice(int, String, long, long) or accessing stats for apps other than the calling app requires the permission Manifest.permission.PACKAGE_USAGE_STATS, which is a system-level permission and will not be granted to third-party apps. However, declaring the permission implies intention to use the API and the user of the device can grant permission through the Settings application.

Profile owner apps are automatically granted permission to query data on the profile they manage (that is, for any query except querySummaryForDevice(int, String, long, long)). Device owner apps and carrier- privileged apps likewise get access to usage data for all users on the device.

In addition to tethering usage, usage by removed users and apps, and usage by the system is also included in the results for callers with one of these higher levels of access.

NOTE: Prior to API level android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES.N, all calls to these APIs required the above permission, even to access an app's own data usage, and carrier-privileged apps were not included.

queryDetails

Added in API level 23 
public NetworkStats queryDetails (int networkType, 
                String subscriberId, 
                long startTime, 
                long endTime)

Query network usage statistics details. Result filtered to include only uids belonging to calling user. Result is aggregated over state but not aggregated over time, uid, tag, metered, nor roaming. This means buckets' start and end timestamps are going to be between 'startTime' and 'endTime' parameters. State is going to be NetworkStats.Bucket.STATE_ALL, uid will vary, tag NetworkStats.Bucket.TAG_NONE, default network is going to be NetworkStats.Bucket.DEFAULT_NETWORK_ALL, metered is going to be NetworkStats.Bucket.METERED_ALL, and roaming is going to be NetworkStats.Bucket.ROAMING_ALL.

Only includes buckets that atomically occur in the inclusive time range. Doesn't interpolate across partial buckets. Since bucket length is in the order of hours, this method cannot be used to measure data usage on a fine grained time scale. This may take a long time, and apps should avoid calling this on their main thread.
This method may take several seconds to complete, so it should only be called from a worker thread.

Parameters
networkType int: As defined in ConnectivityManager, e.g. ConnectivityManager.TYPE_MOBILE, ConnectivityManager.TYPE_WIFI etc.
subscriberId String: If applicable, the subscriber id of the network interface.

Starting with API level 29, the subscriberId is guarded by additional restrictions. Calling apps that do not meet the new requirements to access the subscriberId can provide a null value when querying for the mobile network type to receive usage for all mobile networks. For additional details see TelephonyManager.getSubscriberId().

Starting with API level 31, calling apps can provide a subscriberId with wifi network type to receive usage for wifi networks which is under the given subscription if applicable. Otherwise, pass null when querying all wifi networks.
startTime long: Start of period. Defined in terms of "Unix time", see System.currentTimeMillis().
endTime long: End of period. Defined in terms of "Unix time", see System.currentTimeMillis().
Returns
NetworkStats Statistics object or null if permissions are insufficient or error happened during statistics collection.
Throws
RemoteException
SecurityException
