If you store several eSIM profiles, the main thing is knowing which line is enabled and which one is being used for mobile data.

​
Keep profiles easy to identify

Use clear labels such as:
  • Turkey;
  • Europe;
  • Work eSIM;
  • Holiday — October.
Before connecting, check:
  • the correct eSIM is enabled;
  • it is selected for mobile data;
  • the current country is covered by the plan;
  • your home SIM has not accidentally become the mobile-data line.

​
Enable a stored eSIM

Open Settings → Cellular, enable the required eSIM, then select it under Cellular Data.

​
After the trip

1

Return mobile data to your home SIM

Make sure your regular SIM is selected for data again.
2

Turn off the travel eSIM

If you do not need it now, simply disable the line.
3

Check the package state

See whether validity ended, data remains, or top-up is still available.
4

Do not rush to delete the profile

If you are not sure whether the profile may be useful again, keeping it disabled is safer.

​
Can the same profile be used again?

Keep three things separate:
  • eSIM profile — the digital SIM installed on the phone;
  • package — the data/validity attached to it;
  • top-up — another compatible package for the same profile, when supported.
Some eSIMs can receive another package later. Others cannot.

​
What if I delete the eSIM?

Deletion does not automatically mean the eSIM is permanently lost. Some profiles can be installed again on the same device, depending on the specific eSIM state and technical restrictions.
Do not treat an already installed eSIM as transferable to another phone. If you only want it out of your active lines, disable it instead of deleting it.

Deleted eSIM or reinstall problem

Check whether this specific profile can be recovered.
