isActiveNetworkMetered

@RequiresPermission(value = Manifest.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE)
open fun isActiveNetworkMetered(@NonNull cm: ConnectivityManager): Boolean(source)

Deprecated

Call isActiveNetworkMetered directly.

Returns if the currently active data network is metered. A network is classified as metered when the user is sensitive to heavy data usage on that connection due to monetary costs, data limitations or battery/performance issues. You should check this before doing large data transfers, and warn the user or delay the operation until another network is available.

This method requires the caller to hold the permission ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE.

Return

true if large transfers should be avoided, otherwise false.
