How to Activate an eSIM on iPhone
iPhone eSIM activation takes under 2 minutes. You will need: a QR code from your eSIM provider (email), a Wi-Fi connection, and an eSIM-compatible iPhone (XS or later).
Activate via QR code (recommended)
Activate manually (if QR scan fails)
Configure after installation
eSIM-only iPhones (no physical SIM slot)
iPhone 14, 15, and 16 US models have no physical SIM slot. International (non-US) iPhone 15 and 16 models retain a nano-SIM slot alongside eSIM. On eSIM-only devices, you manage everything through Settings → Cellular → Add eSIM. You can store up to 8 eSIM profiles and have 2 active simultaneously.
