Step-by-step guide to verify eSIM support on iPhone and Android before purchasing.

How to Check if Your Device Supports eSIM

iPhone

  1. Open Settings → General → About.
  2. Scroll down and look for Digital SIM or EID. If either is listed, your iPhone supports eSIM.

Alternatively, go to Settings → Cellular / Mobile Service and check if an Add eSIM or Add Cellular Plan option is visible.

Android

  1. Open Settings → Network & Internet (Pixel) or Settings → Connections → SIM card manager (Samsung).
  2. Look for an Add eSIM, Add mobile plan, or + button.
  3. You can also dial *#06# and check if an EID appears alongside your IMEI — if it does, eSIM is supported.

If you don't see the option

  • Update your OS — older software versions may not show eSIM options even on compatible hardware.
  • Your device may be carrier-locked. Contact your home carrier and ask if eSIM is enabled on your account and whether your device is unlocked.
  • Check the full device compatibility list.
