To transition from 4G to 5G on your iOS phone, begin by confirming your phone’s compatibility. You can do this by referring to the manufacturer’s specifications or visiting the phone manufacturer’s website. Most modern iOS phones can use 5G, but it’s crucial to verify before attempting the switch.
Here’s how to enable 5G:
1. Go into your phone’s Settings
2. Select “Cellular”
3. Select Cellular Data Options
Note: You should see Roaming Off as the existing setting.
4. Select “Voice and Data”
5. Select “5G Auto”
6. Once selected, select Back to return to the Cellular Data Options
7. Select “Data Mode”
8. Select “Allow More Data on 5G”
Now you’ll be able to take full advantage of your 5G mobile service!
After enabling 5G, it’s good practice to restart your phone. This ensures that the new settings take effect properly. Once your phone restarts, you should see a 5G indicator in the status bar when you’re connected to a 5G network. Keep in mind that the appearance of the indicator may vary based on your iOS version and carrier.
Please note that there won’t be an option specifically labeled “Allow more Data” for 5G.
