APN, short for Access Point Name, is the configuration string your phone relies on to reach the ASDA Mobile mobile network for internet data, MMS picture messages and mobile hotspot. Without the correct ASDA Mobile APN settings, your SIM card may connect to the network but fail to load web pages or send picture messages.
This guide covers the recommended ASDA Mobile APN values for Android and iPhone, including the APN name, username, password, MMSC, MMS proxy and port fields. If your device is showing mobile data connected but no internet, checking the APN configuration is one of the first steps to take.
Entering Asda Mobile APN values on iPhone
On Android 10 and up, Asda Mobile's APN screen sits at Settings → Network & Internet (Connections on Samsung) → Mobile Network → Access Point Names. Plus icon adds a profile; tap an entry to edit.
Galaxy handsets: Settings → Connections → Mobile Networks → Access Point Names. Xiaomi and Redmi use Settings → SIM cards & Mobile Networks → Access Point Names.

You can also reset your network settings at Settings → General → Transfer or Reset iPhone → Reset → Reset Network Settings, which will restore the default ASDA Mobile APN configuration.

Troubleshooting ASDA Mobile APN issues
If mobile data still does not work after entering the ASDA Mobile APN settings, try the following steps in order:
1. Toggle aeroplane mode. Turn aeroplane mode on for ten seconds, then turn it off. This forces your phone to reconnect to the ASDA Mobile network and re-register the APN profile.
2. Restart fully — this clears short-lived faults and applies the new Asda Mobile values.
3. Rebuild the APN. Delete Asda Mobile's entry and retype it — one wrong character breaks data.
4. Reset all network settings. On Android: Settings → General Management → Reset → Reset Network Settings. On iPhone: Settings → General → Reset → Reset Network Settings. This clears all saved Wi-Fi passwords, Bluetooth pairings and APN settings, then restores the ASDA Mobile defaults.
5. Check your ASDA Mobile account. Make sure your SIM is activated, your account is active and you have not exceeded your data allowance. Visit the ASDA Mobile APN hub or call ASDA Mobile customer services.

Frequently Asked Questions About Asda Mobile APN Settings iPhone
Will changing APN settings delete anything?
No — the rest of the phone is unaffected. This only controls the Asda Mobile connection for internet and MMS, and it's reversible.
Do I need to enter APN settings on an eSIM?
In most cases, eSIM profiles include the correct APN settings automatically. However, if mobile data is not working on your ASDA Mobile eSIM, you may need to enter the APN values manually using the same steps above.
Why is my ASDA Mobile APN greyed out?
Some network operators lock the APN field on specific devices or SIM types. If the APN is greyed out on Android, try going to Settings → Network & Internet → Mobile Network and looking for an option to reset APNs. On iPhone, a greyed-out APN field means the carrier is controlling the setting via a carrier bundle — contact ASDA Mobile to request an APN update.
