Cellular settings
Use Cellular settings to turn cellular data and roaming on or o, set which apps and services use
cellular data, see call time and cellular data usage, and set other cellular options.
If iPhone is connected to the Internet via the cellular data network, the LTE, 4G, 3G, E, or GPRS
icon appears in the status bar.
LTE, 4G, and 3G service on GSM cellular networks support simultaneous voice and data
communications. For all other cellular connections, you can’t use Internet services while you’re
talking on the phone unless iPhone also has a Wi-Fi connection to the Internet. Depending on
your network connection, you may not be able to receive calls while iPhone transfers data over
the cellular network—when downloading a webpage, for example.
GSM networks: On an EDGE or GPRS connection, incoming calls may go directly to voicemail
during data transfers. For incoming calls that you answer, data transfers are paused.
CDMA networks: On EV-DO connections, data transfers are paused when you answer incoming
calls. On 1xRTT connections, incoming calls may go directly to voicemail during data transfers.
For incoming calls that you answer, data transfers are paused.
Data transfer resumes when you end the call.
