Will an eSIM work on my phone?

Check your exact model

eSIM support depends on the phone model and the country or region it was made for. Two phones with similar names can have different SIM features. Find the model number in your phone’s About screen and check the manufacturer’s specifications for that version.

Look for the option to add an eSIM

Menu names vary with software versions. An eSIM option is a useful check, but confirm your exact device and the plan’s requirements before buying.

1. On iPhone, look under Settings → Mobile Service or Mobile Data for Add eSIM.
2. On Google Pixel, look under Settings → Network and Internet → SIMs → Add SIM.
3. On a compatible Samsung Galaxy, look under Settings → Connections → SIM manager for an eSIM option.

Check whether your phone is unlocked

For a travel plan using another network, the phone needs to accept that network’s eSIM. On iPhone, Settings → General → About shows the carrier-lock status. If you are unsure, ask the provider that supplied the phone.

Before you order

• Check that the destination and validity match your trip.
• Confirm whether the plan includes data only or also calls and texts.
• Check how many SIMs your device can use at once.
• If compatibility is unclear, contact Forge with the exact model and country of purchase before ordering.
