VOXI APN Settings: Mobile Data and MMS Setup
If you've just popped in a Voxi SIM and can't get online, the issue is almost certainly your APN (Access Point Name) settings. Voxi runs on the Vodafone network, so it shares the same core APN configuration — but getting every field right matters. This guide gives you the exact Voxi mobile data settings you need, with step-by-step instructions for both Android and iPhone, plus fixes for common problems.

How to Set Up Voxi APN on Android
Step-by-Step Instructions
- Open Settings and tap Network & Internet (or Connections on Samsung devices).
- Tap Mobile network → Access Point Names.
- Tap the + icon (or the three-dot menu → New APN) to create a new entry.
- Enter every value from the table above, ensuring the APN field reads pp.vodafone.co.uk exactly.
- Tap the three-dot menu → Save.
- Select the new VOXI APN from the list so the radio button is active.
- Restart your phone.
After rebooting, you should see 4G or 5G in the status bar within a few seconds. If not, head to the troubleshooting section below.
How to Set Up Voxi APN on iPhone
Step-by-Step Instructions
iPhones typically configure APN settings automatically via a carrier update. If your Voxi data still isn't working, you can enter the settings manually:
- Go to Settings → Mobile Data → Mobile Data Network.
- Under Mobile Data, set the APN to pp.vodafone.co.uk, Username to wap, and Password to wap.
- Scroll down to the MMS section and enter the MMSC, MMS Proxy, and MMS Port values from the table above.
- Leave all other fields blank.
- Go back to exit — iOS saves automatically.
- Restart your iPhone.
Note: If you don't see the Mobile Data Network option, go to Settings → General → About and accept any pending carrier update. This often resolves the issue without manual configuration.
Voxi MMS Settings: Sending and Receiving Picture Messages
If web pages load but picture messages will not send, the fault is almost always the MMS half of the APN rather than the data half. Voxi needs three MMS values:
- MMSC:
http://mms.vodafone.co.uk/servlets/mms - MMS proxy:
212.183.137.12 - MMS port:
8799
On Android these go into the same APN profile as the data settings. On iPhone they sit in a separate MMS block inside Mobile Data Network. All three have to be right — a missing proxy or port stops MMS without affecting browsing, which is what makes this fault so confusing.
MMS also needs mobile data switched on. On Wi-Fi alone it will not send, and on some iPhones you need to turn Wi-Fi Calling off while you test.
Troubleshooting: Voxi Data Not Working
If you've entered the correct Voxi mobile data settings and still can't connect, work through these fixes in order:
1. Toggle Aeroplane Mode
Switch Aeroplane Mode on, wait ten seconds, then switch it off. This forces your phone to re-register on the network.
2. Check Mobile Data Is Enabled
It sounds obvious, but verify that mobile data is turned on in Settings → Mobile Data (iPhone) or Settings → Network & Internet (Android).
3. Verify You’ve Selected the Correct APN
On Android it is possible to have several APN profiles saved at once. Go back into Access Point Names and check that the Voxi/Vodafone profile using pp.vodafone.co.uk is the one selected, shown by a filled radio button.
4. Reset Network Settings
On iPhone: Settings → General → Transfer or Reset iPhone → Reset → Reset Network Settings. On Android: Settings → System → Reset options → Reset Wi-Fi, mobile & Bluetooth. You'll need to re-enter the APN afterwards.
5. Re-Seat the SIM Card
Power off your phone, remove the SIM, wait 30 seconds, reinsert it, and power on again.
6. Check for Outages
Voxi uses the Vodafone network. If there's a regional outage, no amount of APN tweaking will help. Check Vodafone's service status page or Downdetector for live reports.
7. Check Your Data Allowance
If you have used your allowance, or the plan has not renewed, data can be throttled or blocked outright and the APN is not the problem. Check what is left in the Voxi app.
8. Try a Different APN Protocol
On Android, if the APN protocol is set to IPv6, change it to IPv4/IPv6 or to IPv4 alone. Some older handsets do not handle IPv6-only correctly.
When to Consider a Business Mobile Solution
Voxi is a solid consumer option, but if your team relies on mobile data for day-to-day operations, a dedicated business mobile plan offers priority support, pooled data, and centralised account management. Connection Technologies partners with all major UK networks to find the best fit for your organisation — whether you need five handsets or five hundred.
Other Vodafone-Based Networks
VOXI shares Vodafone’s network with a few other brands, and each uses a different APN despite the common host. If you also look after a Lebara or Talkmobile line, neither takes VOXI’s pp.vodafone.co.uk, and none of the three takes Vodafone’s own wap.vodafone.co.uk.
What APN should I use for Voxi?
The correct APN for Voxi is pp.vodafone.co.uk. Use wap for both the username and password, and set the authentication type to PAP.
Are Voxi and Vodafone APN settings the same?
They share the same core APN (pp.vodafone.co.uk) and MMS settings because Voxi operates on the Vodafone network. The configuration values listed in this guide work for both. For full Vodafone-specific details, see our Vodafone APN settings guide.
Why is my Voxi mobile data not working after entering the APN?
The most common causes are a typo in the APN field, mobile data being toggled off, or a pending carrier update on iPhone. Restart your phone after saving the settings, and double-check each value against the table above. If the problem persists, try resetting your network settings entirely.
Do I need APN settings for Voxi on iPhone?
Usually not — iPhones receive Voxi's APN configuration automatically via a carrier update. However, if your data or MMS isn't working, you can enter the settings manually under Settings → Mobile Data → Mobile Data Network.
Can I use Voxi SIMs for business purposes?
Voxi is designed as a consumer pay-as-you-go service and doesn't offer business account management, pooled data, or dedicated support. If your organisation needs reliable mobile connectivity, contact Connection Technologies for a tailored business mobile quote.
What are the VOXI MMS settings?
VOXI uses the Vodafone MMS gateway: MMSC http://mms.vodafone.co.uk/servlets/mms, proxy 212.183.137.12 and port 8799. All three are needed. If browsing works but picture messages do not, these values are the first thing to check.
