# How to disable IPv6 on Android?

This guide will show you how to disable IPv6 on your Android device. You can disable IPv6 support on your mobile data network. Unfortunately, it is not possible to disable IPv6 through Wi-Fi network settings on an Android device.

Please do mind that your Android graphical interface might be slightly different from the screenshots.

1. Launch the **Settings** app.
