# Set up eduroam with the geteduroam app

The geteduroam app helps you set up eduroam quickly and securely on your smartphone, tablet, or laptop. The app applies the correct Wi-Fi settings for TU Braunschweig and ensures that you connect to a properly configured eduroam network. This also supports secure verification of the server certificate.

**Before you start**

For the setup, you will need:

- an internet connection during the initial setup

**Step-by-step setup**

- Download the geteduroam app.  
    The app is available for Android, iPhone/iPad, Windows, and Linux. On Linux, the app is available, among other places, via Flathub.  
    Here is the link to the apps.
- Open the app and search for **Technische Universität Braunschweig**.
- Sign in.
    
    
    - Enter your **TUBS ID** and password exactly as provided by your institution.
- Confirm the setup.  
    The app will configure the Wi-Fi profile for you. After that, your device should automatically connect to eduroam whenever the network is within range.
- Keep the app installed.  
    This is very important: if you uninstall the geteduroam app, the eduroam configuration created by it will also be removed. The app should therefore remain installed as long as you use eduroam.
