   On my Android 11 phone there is a setting which I hope is also on iOS.   
    Setting > Connections > Data usage > Mobile data usage   
    Setting > Connections > Data usage > Wi-Fi data usage   
      
   Each, when pressed, brings up a graph of your data usage over time, broken   
   down into both foreground and background data usage overall for each app.   
      
   For each app is the option to allow or disallow background data usage.   
    Allow background data usage = yes or no   
    Allow data usage while Data saver is on = yes or no   
      
   In addition, the FOSS NetGuard will, also on a per app basis, restrict   
   access on either wifi or cellular data (or both, as you wish)   
   as shown in this screenshot I created below on my Android 11 phone.   
       
      
   If you restrict WiFi for example, for any one app, and that app tries to   
   access the Internet, the "log Internet access" option will pop up a message.   
      
   You can also block specific apps for roaming access only, if you like.   
   And, you can allow or block specific apps' Internet access in lockdown mode.   
      
   You can allow wi-fi access for any given app only when the screen is awake.   
   You can allow cellular data access for any given app when the screen is on.   
      
   The app also logs all the IP addresses of the sites any given app accesses.   
      
   If this capability exists for iOS please let us know as I love this app!
