eduroam (education roaming) is an international Wi-Fi internet access roaming service for users in research, higher education and further education. 

It provides researchers, teachers, and students network access when visiting an institution other than their own. Users are authenticated with credentials from their home institution, regardless of the location of the eduroam access point. Authorization to access the Internet and other resources are handled by the visited institution. Users do not have to pay to use eduroam.

To make connecting to eduroam easier, users can download the official geteduroam application from the Google Play Store. The app helps students, researchers, lecturers, and staff securely configure their devices to connect to the eduroam Wi-Fi network. Users simply select their institution, enter their institutional credentials when required, and the application applies the appropriate network and security settings for that institution. Once configured, the device can automatically connect whenever an eduroam network is available.

The official geteduroam app is available on the Google Play Store for Android devices. It is developed for the eduroam community and supports secure configuration through institution-specific profiles.
