Will it work similarly and not cause issues for any app which needs a data connection? Has anyone run into situations where it being off caused a problem, and you had to re-enable it?

And does it actually save any juice?

Should work just like any other phone, smartphone or not. If your phone is attempting to grab data it will use a connection. When it is not it should have itself off. It's something you will have to find out by trial and error - if you have your mail app grabbing data every 30min or hour then your battery life will be lower as opposed to manually grabbing it
