How to Check if Your Phone is eSIM-Compatible

The easiest way to be sure is to check your phone's settings.

• On iPhone: Go to Settings > Cellular (or Mobile Data). If you see an option like "Add eSIM" or "Add Cellular Plan," your phone is compatible.
• On Android: Go to Settings > Network & Internet > SIMs. Look for an option to add an eSIM. The exact path may vary by manufacturer.

You can also dial *#06# on your phone. If an "EID" (Embedded Identity Document) number appears, your device has an eSIM.
