The term “esim” simply means an integrated SIM card. There is no physical sim card and you don’t have to change your card. The information contained in an ESIM is rewritable, which means that you can decide to change your network operator on your iPhone. In fact, you can store up to five virtual sim cards, one esim at a time. It is very easy to add a data plan-the connection of iOS devices with E-SIM to a mobile account can be done in a few minutes. The ESIM card of your iPhone must be supported by the network or operator and activated by it. Not all networks support ESIM; However, Ubigi is one of the first international networks suppliers to endure ESIM for Apple iOS. Downloading the Ubigi Esim app for iPhone is free and only takes a few seconds when downloading the Ubigi application. ESIM is ideal for regular travelers. ESIM should mean that you could go to another country and simply add an ESIM of homelessness to your handset while retaining access to your main number. The use of an operator like Ubigi, who connects to the local mobile network abroad, can prove to be much more economical than paying roaming costs to your usual operator. This also allows people to quickly change operator to connect if they are in a signal area.
If your device does not appear in the list, you will need to order a physical SIM card with Transatel Datasim, the Affiliée de Ubigi brand. This all-in-one SIM card adapts to all devices (smartphone, tablet, laptop and hotspot) and offers the same service, the same data packages and the same coverage as Ubigi.
Configure the cellular service on the iPhone
Your iPhone needs a physical SIM card or an ESIM card to connect to a cellular network. Not all options are available on all models, nor in all countries and all regions. On the iPhone 14 and subsequent models purchased in the United States, you can only use an ESIM card. Contact your operator to obtain a SIM card and configure the cellular service.
Configure an ESIM card
Supported iPhone models can digitally store an ESIM card provided by your operator. If your operator supports the activation of the ESIM operator or ESIM quick transfer, you can turn on your iPhone and follow the instructions to activate your ESIM card during configuration.
If you have already completed the configuration, you can perform one of the following operations:
- Activation of the ESIM operator: Some operators can directly assign a new ESIM card to your iPhone; Contact your operator to initiate the process. Once you have received the notification “Complete the configuration of the cell package”, touch it. Otherwise, go to settings> cellular data, then touch “activate the cell package” or “add an esim card”.
- Quick transfer from ESIM: Some operators support the automatic transfer of the phone number from the previous iPhone to the new, without you having to contact them (iOS 16 or later required on the two devices). On your new iPhone, go to settings> Cellular data, touch “Activate the cell package” or “Add an ESIM card”, then touch “Transfer from an iPhone nearby” or choose a phone number. On your previous iPhone, follow the instructions to confirm the transfer.
Noticed : Once your phone number transferred to your new iPhone, it stops working on your previous iPhone.
Noticed : If you are invited, connect your iPhone to a Wi-Fi or cellular network available. ESIM configuration requires an internet connection.
Install a physical sim card
You can get a nano-sim card from your operator or use that of your previous iPhone.
Noticed : Physical SIM cards are not compatible with iPhone 14 and subsequent models purchased in the United States.
- Insert a trombone or a SIM card ejection tool into the small SIM card support hole, then push towards the iPhone to eject the support.
Noticed : The shape and orientation of the SIM card support depend on the model of the iPhone and your country or region.
WARNING : Never try to guess the PIN code of a SIM card. An erroneous entry can permanently lock your SIM card and you will no longer be able to make calls or use the cellular data via your operator as long as you do not have a new SIM card. Consult the article Use the PIN code of a SIM card on your iPhone or iPad of Apple Assistance.
Convert a physical sim card into an esim
If your operator supports this, you can convert a physical SIM card to an ESIM on an iPhone model supported.
- Go to settings> Cellular data, touch “Activate the cell package” or “Add an esim card”, then choose the phone number with a physical SIM card.
- Touch “Convert to ESIM”, then follow the instructions on the screen.
Important : The availability of cellular features depends on the wireless network, your iPhone model and your location.
Think about the costs of data, voice and roaming applicable when managing your cell plans, especially when you travel with the iPhone. Consult the Display or Modify Cellular Data Settings on the iPhone.
Some operators allow you to unlock the iPhone to use it with another operator (additional costs may apply). Contact your operator to obtain their authorization and configuration information. Consult the article Unlock your iPhone to use it with another Apple assistance operator.
