Units of measure consistency #187

Checklist

Describe the Feature you'd like

See circled item #1 in the attached screenshot.

In my custom plan I specified the amount of data as 5,120 MB. I would like the comparison of data used out of data remaining to all be consistent and use the same/originally selected unit of measure (in my case, MB), not mix MB and GB.

Why do you want this feature?

I would like this for consistency of units of measure.

The current system uses a common convention of converting 1024MB into 1GB. This behaviour is consistent throughout the app.

What I meant is, Can there be consistency in the units displayed? For example, in my screenshot above, it compares MB to GB (see circled item #1). And - I'd prefer the units displayed to match the units used in setting the data plan. So, in my case, I set up the data plan to be 5,120 MB, so it would be more consistent in the overview screen to compare MB used to MB remaining.

There is no comparison between MB and GB, because the data used is below 1024, it shows up as MB, once it crosses 1024, it'll show up as GB. Even though i do not plan on changing this behaviour, I'll try to take a look at showing data in the same unit it's set while creating a data plan.
