APN settings FAQ

An APN (Access Point Name) tells your phone how to connect to your carrier’s mobile data and picture messaging network. If it’s missing or wrong, calls and texts may work but data and MMS won’t.

Many carriers lock the APN on iPhone and send it automatically with a carrier settings update. Go to Settings → General → About on Wi-Fi to install any update, then restart. If data still doesn’t work, message us.

Check that your plan is active and has data left, that Mobile Data is switched on, and that your phone is unlocked and compatible with the network. Restart the phone after any change. If it still won’t connect, send us your number and phone model on WhatsApp.

Occasionally, for example when a carrier changes networks. We re-check these values regularly and show the date they were last verified.

Still no data? Send us your number and phone model and we’ll walk you through it.
