Android eSIM Installation Guide
It is best to install your eSIM before you travel to your destination.
Follow these easy Step-by-Step instructions to install your eSIM and configure your Android Device for eSIM use:
- Purchase an eSIM data plan from Always Mobile.
- Immediately after purchase you will receive two emails from Always Mobile: a Purchase Receipt and an Order Confirmation (subject: Your New eSIM) containing a QR code.
- To install the eSIM go to your devices Settings. Click Mobile Data (in some Android devices this may be: click Settings > Connections > SIM manager).
- Scan the QR code to install your eSIM. Note: You may asked to assign contacts and apps to the "Primary" line or the new eSIM line. It is best to answer these questions by selecting your "Primary" line option.
- Upon arrival at your destination, go to Settings > Mobile Network and turn your "Primary" line OFF and your "eSIM" line ON.
- Make sure that Data Roaming for the "eSIM" line is set to "ON".
- The initial connection of your eSIM to the local network may take a few minutes to complete. Illuminated connectivity indicator (the 4 bars icon on the very top right of your screen) will indicate that you are connected to the local network.
