Guide
Keep the eSIM QR code or manual installation details on another screen before you begin. Menu names can vary slightly by iPhone model and iOS version.
Connect the iPhone to Wi-Fi, then open Settings, choose Cellular or Mobile Data, and select Add eSIM.
Choose Use QR Code and scan the code from another screen. Use manual details only when they were supplied with the order.
Label the new line clearly, such as Travel or the destination name, so it is easy to identify later.
Select the new eSIM for mobile data when you are ready to use it. Follow the package instructions for data roaming and activation timing.
Keep the original line disabled for mobile-data switching if you need to avoid unintended roaming charges.
Do not delete an installed eSIM unless support specifically asks you to; many installation codes cannot be reused.
Keep the order reference and installation details available until the trip is complete.
If the line installs but data does not work, check the selected data line, roaming setting, APN instructions, and activation conditions.
