How do I set my eSIM for mobile data?

Setup Guide

Apple iOS
1

Select Mobile Data Line

Go to Settings → Mobile Service → Mobile Data:

• Choose your travel eSIM — the line you named when installing (e.g. eSimExpress Travel).

• Ensure Allow Mobile Data Switching is turned OFF. If left ON, iOS may silently switch back to your home SIM when foreign reception fluctuates, causing costly domestic carrier roaming charges.

2

Enable roaming on the travel eSIM

Under SIMs (or Cellular Plans), tap your travel eSIM:

• Turn Turn On This Line → ON

• Turn Data Roaming → ON

3

Verify primary / home SIM settings

Tap your Home / Primary SIM line under the same menu:

• Leave Turn On This Line → ON (so you continue receiving banking 2FA SMS)

• Ensure Data Roaming → OFF

Important: Keep mobile data on your eSIM only
If your phone switches to your regular SIM for data abroad, your carrier may charge roaming fees.
