Quick answer

AT&T launched a $3 daily unlimited data plan for iPads, enabling 24-hour mobile internet access without long-term commitments.

U.S. telecom giant AT&T has expanded connectivity options for iPad users with its new Unlimited Day Pass plan. The service provides 24 hours of unlimited mobile data for $3, including taxes. The first activation is free for one device per customer, with subsequent passes available at the standard price.

The plan is compatible with iPad, iPad Pro, iPad Air, and iPad mini models featuring eSIM and cellular support. Notably, no primary AT&T contract is required—any owner of a compatible device can use the offer. Activation is seamless via iPad settings without the need for additional apps.

Data speeds depend on device capabilities and network conditions, though AT&T reserves the right to throttle speeds during peak usage. Currently, the plan is exclusive to iPads, but AT&T has confirmed plans to extend support to Android tablets in the future, with no announced timeline for this expansion.
