How to set up an eSIM on iPhone

·

Here’s how to set up an eSIM on your iPhone. Depending on your iOS version, the steps might differ a bit but only need to follow the onscreen instructions. This guide will work on any iPhone that supports eSIM.

An eSIM is an industry-standard digital SIM that allows you to activate a cellular plan from your carrier without having to use a physical SIM. You can install eight or more eSIMs on an iPhone and use two phone numbers at the same time. 

Before proceeding with the following steps, please confirm your iPhone model supports eSIM functionality and ensure that your mobile network operator offers eSIM support.

Once confirmed, contact your mobile network operator and request an eSIM activation code. They will provide you with either a QR code, a numerical code, or a download link.
