Part 1: Install your eSIM
Within 10 minutes of purchasing, log in to your account. Your data bundle will appear on the first page. Tap View eSIM, then select Android to begin installation.
Tap Set up to continue. After a few seconds, tap Set up again to confirm.
Once installed, tap Settings to configure your eSIM. Your phone may name it something like “Connect,”
but this can vary - especially if you’ve used eSIMs before.
Tap the eSIM, Select Use eSIM, then tap Turn On to confirm.
Scroll down to Roaming and select All networks.
Now is a good time to rename your eSIM. Tap the edit icon and choose a name like easySim (or something familiar).
Part 2: Activate your data bundle
When you are ready to use your eSIM, do the following:
Settings > Network and Internet > SIMs > Select easySim > Data preference > Select easySim
We recommend turning off your primary SIM, if you don’t need calls or texts. This helps avoid roaming charges, and saves battery life.
