Cellular
========
:download:`Template <../_static/examples/com.apple.cellular.mobileconfig>`

A cellular payload configures cellular network settings on the device.
It is not supported on macOS. On iOS 7 and later, a cellular payload is designated by specifying **com.apple.cellular** as the PayloadType value.

Cellular payloads have two important installation requirements:

- No more than one cellular payload can be installed at any time.
- A cellular payload cannot be installed if an APN payload is already installed.

This payload replaces the com.apple.managedCarrier payload, which is supported, but deprecated.

- Supersedes ``com.apple.apn.managed`` (APN) which is used on iOS 6 and earlier.
- Supersedes ``com.apple.managedCarrier``
