LTE.app Smart Coach — automatic diagnosis
Smart Coach checks your APN settings, roaming state, and carrier connection automatically — no data needed. Open the app and tap Smart Coach to fix most issues in under 60 seconds.
Step-by-step fixes
1
Enable data roaming on the Airalo eSIM line
This is the most common cause of Airalo eSIM issues. Go to Settings → Cellular (iOS) or SIM Manager (Samsung) or Network & Internet (Android/Pixel) → tap your Airalo eSIM line → enable Data Roaming.
2
Set Airalo as your active data SIM
Settings → Cellular → Cellular Data (iOS) or Settings → Connections → SIM Manager → Data SIM (Samsung). Ensure the Airalo line is selected, not your home SIM.
3
Toggle airplane mode
Enable airplane mode for 30 seconds, then disable it. This forces your phone to re-scan for carriers and often restores signal after landing in a new country.
4
Check your Airalo plan is still active
Log into the Airalo app and check the plan validity and remaining data. If the plan has expired or data is exhausted, you need to purchase a new plan.
5
Manually select a carrier
iOS: Settings → Cellular → Network Selection → Automatic off → select a carrier manually. Try each listed carrier. Airalo uses multiple partner carriers depending on country.
6
Use Smart Coach for automatic diagnosis
Open LTE.app and tap Smart Coach. It checks your APN settings, roaming state, and carrier connection automatically — even without mobile data — and walks you through the exact fix for your device and carrier.
Frequently asked questions
Why is my Airalo eSIM showing no signal?
Enable data roaming on the Airalo line, toggle airplane mode, and wait up to 2 minutes after landing for carrier registration. If still no signal, try manual carrier selection in your network settings.
Airalo eSIM is installed but not connecting to the internet. What should I do?
This is almost always data roaming being off, or the wrong SIM selected as the active data line. Enable data roaming and set the Airalo line as your Cellular Data or preferred data SIM.

The fixes above resolve most issues without contacting support. If you are looking for a provider with built-in real-time troubleshooting, LTE.app's Smart Coach feature diagnoses and resolves connectivity issues automatically — no support ticket needed.
