Almost every flagship smartphone released since 2019 is equipped to support eSIMFlyer, making it the perfect companion for your international journeys. This broad compatibility includes devices such as the iPhone XS and all subsequent models, the Google Pixel 3 and any newer iterations, and the Samsung Galaxy S20 series and its successors. A growing number of mid-range devices are also joining the eSIM-compatible ranks. If your phone features an 'Add eSIM' option within its cellular settings, you're all set to enjoy hassle-free connectivity with eSIMFlyer.

No. An eSIM can be installed only once, and it locks to the first device it is installed on. It cannot be moved to another phone, re-scanned, or reinstalled afterward, and it is non-refundable once installed. Please install your eSIM on the device you plan to keep using. If you are switching devices and need help, contact our support team.

Determining eSIM compatibility is crucial for a smooth travel experience. While most recent models from Apple (iPhone XS and newer), Samsung (Galaxy S20 series and up), and Google (Pixel 3a and newer) support eSIM, it's always best to be certain. You can typically find this information in your phone's settings under 'Cellular' or 'Mobile Data', looking for an 'Add eSIM' or 'Add Data Plan' option. For a definitive answer, check our comprehensive list of supported devices on the eSIMFlyer website.

Coverage can be a bit of a mixed bag in the truly remote stretches, even for the most seasoned networks. You'll generally find service at established tourist hubs like the Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park resort areas.

Pro-tip: download any critical maps, tickets, or travel documents before venturing into these connectivity black holes.
