Getting Started with eSIM on iOS Devices

Before setting up an eSIM on your iOS device, it’s important to ensure that your device is compatible with eSIMs and is carrier-unlocked. Follow the steps below to check compatibility and set up your eSIM.

Once the eSIM is installed, you can add a label to the eSIM by following these steps:
