povo 4G LTE 5G APN Settings for Android, iPhone 17 Pro, iPhone 16, iPhone 15, Samsung Galaxy, Google Pixel, Xiaomi, Oppo, Motorola, Sony Xperia, AQUOS and 5G WiFi Router.
Settings last verified: October 2026.

Quick answer: the povo APN is povo.jp, with no username or password.

povo2.0 needs only the name povo2.0 and the APN povo.jp; leave the other fields empty. On some older au phones (SOV32 to SOV35) add username user@povo.jp, password povo and authentication CHAP if you get an error.

Samsung Galaxy: Settings -> Connections -> Mobile networks -> Network mode -> 5G/LTE/3G/2G (auto connect).
iPhone 12 or later: Settings -> Mobile Service -> Mobile Data Options -> Voice & Data -> 5G Auto.

povo APN Tips

  • On iPhone you can also install the povo APN profile over Wi-Fi. Delete any older APN profile from another carrier first.
  • Most Android phones bought from au still need the APN set by hand.
