How do I know how much data I am using?

I have installeld the pandora app on my phone, and of course I am worried about my data, how can I tell if the app is running or not when I am not using? I am worried it is using my data even when I am not using it.

Thank you

Your phone has a data meter in settings.

learn how to close apps on your model of phone.   On my Samsung, it's hold my home button and it shows all recently used apps.   Then I swipe or tap x to close.   Your phone may operate differently

Even better, go into data usage, find the app, click it, then put an x in the checkbox for "restrict background data"
