About UK APN Hub
Accurate APN settings for every UK mobile network — verified, up to date, free.
Who We Are
UK APN Hub is a specialist resource dedicated to publishing accurate, verified APN (Access Point Name) settings for every mobile network operating in the United Kingdom. We cover the four major UK network operators — EE, O2, Vodafone, and Three — as well as over 20 UK MVNOs including giffgaff, Tesco Mobile, Sky Mobile, BT Mobile, SMARTY, VOXI, Lebara, Lycamobile, iD Mobile, SPUSU, RWG Mobile, Utility Warehouse Mobile, and more.
We are independent and not affiliated with any UK mobile network operator. Our goal is to provide the single most reliable free reference for UK mobile APN configuration.
Our site covers more than APN settings — we publish comprehensive guides on MMS settings, eSIM setup, international roaming configuration, troubleshooting for common network problems, and independent comparisons of UK mobile networks and MVNOs.
Our Editorial Team
The UK APN Hub editorial team consists of UK mobile technology specialists with backgrounds in network engineering, telecoms journalism, and consumer tech. Every contributor is based in the UK and uses UK SIMs daily.
APN Verification & Technical Content — Our team of UK mobile technology writers and network engineers maintains the APN settings database across all pages. Every APN value is cross-referenced against official carrier documentation, verified through community testing reports, and updated when carriers announce changes. All content is reviewed for accuracy before publication and reviewed annually — or immediately when a carrier announces a settings change.
Our Methodology
APN settings published on UK APN Hub are verified through the following process:
- Primary source verification — We reference official carrier support documentation, carrier-issued press releases, and network operator technical data where available. All four major UK operators and their MVNO partners publish APN settings in their official support documentation.
- Community cross-referencing — Settings are cross-checked against verified user reports from carrier community forums (giffgaff Community, Three Community, O2 Community) and independent UK mobile technology sites and testing databases.
- Device testing — Key APN values are tested on Android (Samsung Galaxy, Google Pixel) and iPhone devices to confirm the settings produce working data and MMS connections. We do not publish settings that have not been device-verified.
- Regular review cycle — All pages are reviewed for accuracy at least annually. Changes are applied immediately when carriers announce APN updates. We monitor carrier announcements, community forums, and Ofcom publications for relevant changes.
MMS settings (MMSC, proxy, port) are sourced from carrier technical documentation and user-verified on current Android devices. eSIM and roaming guides are updated to reflect current carrier policies and device compatibility.

Accuracy & Corrections
We aim for the highest accuracy in all APN values published on this site. APN settings can change when carriers update their network infrastructure, launch new services, or retire legacy systems. The shutdown of 3G networks across all UK carriers in 2023–2024, for example, required updates to many carrier APN and VoLTE configurations, which we tracked and updated across all relevant pages.
If you believe a setting on this site is incorrect or outdated, we welcome corrections. We review all corrections promptly and update pages within 24–48 hours when a verified error is confirmed. Our commitment is to publish only verified, accurate APN settings — not AI-generated values without verification.
Disclaimer
UK APN Hub is an independent information resource and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or operated by any UK mobile network operator. Network names, trademarks, and logos referenced on this site (EE, O2, Vodafone, Three, giffgaff, etc.) are the property of their respective owners.
APN settings are published for informational purposes. While we strive for accuracy, we cannot guarantee that all settings are current at the time of reading. Mobile carriers can and do change APN values, sometimes without public announcement. Always verify critical settings with your carrier if you are unsure, particularly if you are configuring settings for a business-critical device.
Advertising
UK APN Hub is supported by display advertising. All advertisements are clearly marked and do not influence editorial content. APN values and recommendations are based entirely on technical accuracy and carrier documentation — not commercial relationships with network operators or device manufacturers.
We do not accept payment from carriers or MVNOs to feature, promote, or recommend their services. Network comparison articles and plan recommendations are made on the basis of independent analysis of coverage data (from Ofcom), price comparisons, and our own testing.
