I'm going to Prague tomorrow, the first time I've been abroad with my iPhone 4s. I'm worried the phone is going to do something like update my e-mail or Facebook or some app or other will track my location in the background and I'll end up paying a fortune for data roaming charges.

How do I make absolutely sure this doesn't happen? It's not obvious in the settings.

Thanks in advance!

I've recently been to USA with my 4S and just for belt and braces I would stick it in airplane mode when out and about (needed it for a camera) and turned it off back in the villa where there was wifi.

Also made the settings changes listed in a previous post, especially the Cellular Data one which restricts data to wifi.

By Default your iphone 4s should be set to DATA ROAMING OF but its worth checking first. Check if your hotel has wifi, would be a lot cheaper then roaming!
