What is an eSIM profile ? Leave a comment

An eSIM profile is the software that you must download to your eSIM-enabled device to access the carrier’s mobile network. It is different from a conventional SIM card that is a physical card inserted into a device and that is removable.

To install the eSIM profile on the embedded eSIM on your device, carriers provide you with:
– either a QR code (or an activation code) to flash with your device for an automatic installation
– or allow you to install the eSIM profile automatically from their own app

With Ubigi for example, you just need to follow the step-by- step guide here to install your eSIM profile automatically from the Ubigi app depending on your device.
