How to measure data usage (internet) in react-native

Question

I want to measure data usage (internet) and then show to the users which how much internet they have consumed.

My app is a chat application and the messages are text, image, sticker, video, post and shares, so users can open the image, see the text, watch the videos and scroll the posts.

Why I need this.

Because we have a poor internet connection in our country so I have to make sure the users that the app is not an internet killer.

If you're using a JS library for networking Axios or even a builtin function (fetch) you can implement a wrapper Promise which calculates the length of any input/output string, + an approximation of the length of the header.
