How can I switch my eSIM to another device?
|

Switching your eSIM to another device is simple, but you must first ensure your new device supports eSIM technology. To switch:
- On iPhone: If you're switching to a new iPhone, use the Quick Start feature to transfer your eSIM during the device setup process. Alternatively, you can manually activate your eSIM by going to Settings > Cellular > Add Cellular Plan and scanning the QR code provided by your carrier.
- On Android: Most Android phones will allow you to transfer an eSIM profile from one device to another using the Settings > Network & Internet > Mobile Network section. You may also need a QR code from your carrier for activation.
- Other Devices: Check with your device manufacturer for specific instructions on transferring eSIM profiles, as the process may vary depending on the brand and model.

Can I use the same eSIM on multiple devices?
|
|
In most cases, an eSIM can only be active on one device at a time. If you wish to use your eSIM on another device, you may need to remove it from your current device and activate it on the new one. Some carriers may allow you to have multiple eSIM profiles (for example, for personal and business use), but each profile can only be active on one device at a time. It's important to contact your carrier for specific details regarding eSIM activation and deactivation on multiple devices.
