No friend of mine is on ipv6. No mobile phone I've seen supports ipv6. Having an ipv6 prefix is useless to me (as someone that is behind the abomination called CGNAT / 'Dual Stack Lite').

iOS supports IPv6, and has done for some time: https://developer.apple.com/news/?id=05042016a https://developer.apple.com/news/?id=05042016a

My T-Mobile (US) Android phone definitely supports IPv6 - but only as a native device, not as a hotspot. Anything that connects to the hotspot gets an RFC1918 address with NAT.

> No mobile phone I've seen supports ipv6. T-Mobile LTE has been exclusively IPv6 on most phones for some time now. I'm pretty sure other mobile providers have done the same or are in the process of doing so. All my Android devices have supported IPv6 as long as I've had it running on my network. I don't have an iOS device but since T-Mobile sells them I assume they work with IPv6.

  Verizon LTE is IPv6, too

  I replied to a different post in this thread, but ipv6 isn't available for me (Germany). Sure, my devices would support it..

  Whoa. I got quite some downvotes - probably from people living in completely different environments. I'm from Germany. We have three big players here: Vodafone (my corporate mobile), Deutsche Telekom, EPlus (I think that is owned by/known as Orange elsewhere?). Vodafone: No ipv6 address Telekom: Can't test EPlus: No ipv6 address Google's ipv6 test (I checked with 'ip addr' before and don't get any ipv6 address other than the link-local one): Left SIM is Vodafone, right one is a reseller for EPlus. http://imgur.com/a/TNSFy http://imgur.com/a/TNSFy In other words: Maybe, maybe ONE of the three mobile networks hands out ipv6 in Germany (I doubt it though?). For me and everyone around me, ipv6 services are unreachable from any phone and accessing ipv6 services from random machines (friend's house, hotel network) is highly unlikely. Like .. I'd give it a 10% chance to work and my home network is ipv6 only for years now, so it's not like I haven't tried..
