Maybe it happened to you when you travel abroad, or when you have changed operators, you can not connect to the web or can not send pictures.

We will see in a second time how to configure an APN on your Vivo iQoo Neo. Finally, we will see in which situations it is necessary to change the APN on the Vivo iQoo Neo.
What is an APN
The APN means Access Point Name. The APN therefore represents a set of connection data. This connection data allows your Vivo iQoo Neo to connect to the net and receive MMS. An incorrectly configured APN can thus prevent your Vivo iQoo Neo from receiving MMS or connecting to the internet. You should know that each operator has a different APN of their own.
Tips on how to configure an APN on your Vivo iQoo Neo
If you want to configure an APN on your Vivo iQoo Neo, you need to navigate to the Settings menu. When you are there, go to Network and Internet and Mobile Network . You’ll have to go to Advanced Settings and then Access Point Names . When you are there, you should select the three dots at the top right of the screen and choose New APN . You will then access a form that you need to fill in with the data of your operator. For example, if you are at Vodafone , you must find the Vodafone APN data on the net and copy it into the form. Almost always, the APN of each operator are easily findable. You have to repeat two times the operation on your Vivo iQoo Neo. Certainly, you will need an APN for internet and an APN for MMS.
In which case should you configure an APN on your Vivo iQoo Neo?
Typically, you will not automatically need to configure an APN on your Vivo iQoo Neo as it’s usually done automatically. Nevertheless, there are a few situations that require the setup of an APN on your Vivo iQoo Neo.
