Find eSIM settings

On Samsung, open Settings, Connections, SIM Manager, then Add eSIM. On Google Pixel, open Settings, Network & internet, SIMs, then Add SIM.

Other Android brands may use labels such as Download a SIM, Add mobile plan, or eSIM manager.

Install the profile

Choose QR code setup and scan the eSIM QR code. If scanning is not available, use manual details from your plan instructions.

Keep Wi-Fi connected until the installation is complete. The device may take a few minutes to download and activate the profile.

Connect at destination

Set the eSIM as the preferred SIM for mobile data and enable roaming for that eSIM. Keep your regular SIM active only if you need it.

If there is no connection, try manual network selection and confirm the APN from your plan details.
