• Device Compatibility

Check if your phone supports eSIM

Most phones made since 2018 can use an eSIM. Run the quick checks below, then browse the device lists to be sure before you buy.

• Three Quick Checks

Find out in under a minute

1. Dial *#06#

Open your phone app and dial *#06#. If an EID number appears on screen, your phone has eSIM hardware.

2. Look in settings

iPhone: Settings, then Cellular (or Mobile Data), then Add eSIM.
Android: Settings, then Network & internet, then SIMs, then Add eSIM. Menu names vary a little by brand.

3. Confirm it’s unlocked

Your phone must be carrier-unlocked. On iPhone, go to Settings, General, About and look for “No SIM restrictions” under Carrier Lock. On Android, ask your carrier.
