If you are abroad, you should keep an eye on the roaming settings on your iPhone or iPad. We’ll show you how to turn the function on and off.
If you activate data roaming on your iPhone or iPad, you can also surf the internet while abroad. Since roaming within the EU was abolished, you can use most cell phone contracts in EU countries just as you would at home. However, data roaming must then be activated, otherwise you will not have access to the Internet.
If you are outside the EU, using the mobile internet while roaming can cost a lot of money, especially since the iPhone likes to check emails in the background or, in the worst case, automatically update an app.
In this case, you should turn off data roaming and only activate it when necessary. Below we will explain where you can find the function on Apple devices and how you can turn roaming on or off. In the linked article we also give you advice on how to ideally prepare your smartphone for your vacation.
