How can I install an eSIM on Android (Samsung, Google, Xiaomi, etc.) devices via QR code?

Installation

NOTE: You need to be connected to the internet to install the eSIM.
NOTE 2: If you have problems finding a QR code, please follow steps from the article: Where do I find my QR code for eSIM installation?
NOTE 3: Screenshots may differ slightly from what you see on your device due to variations between device models.

1. Use your Camera to scan the QR code

• Scan the QR code with the camera of the device you'll be installing the eSIM on

  

2. Install your eSIM

• Press "Add"

  

• Stay on the screen while your eSIM installs (usually takes less than 2 minutes)

  

3. Confirm successful installation

• Once installed, you will see your eSIM in your list of eSIMs in your Settings

  

4. Choose a name for your new eSIM

• Select the just-installed eSIM

  

• Tap "Edit name and icon"

  

• Rename it to a recognizable name (e.g. Ohayu eSIM)
  

  

Activation

NOTE: These steps are recommended, but on some devices or networks, they may already be applied automatically.

1. Start activation

• We recommend doing this once you're at your destination as activation switches your primary data operator. This could interrupt your current internet if done too early

2. Turn on your eSIM

• Go to Settings and tap "Connections" (or "Network & Internet" - wording may vary by device)

  

• Tap SIM manager

  

• Find your installed eSIM in the list, tap it, and turn on the toggle to enable it

  

3. Set eSIM as your preferred data plan

• Inside the SIM manager tap on "Mobile data"

  

• Select your installed eSIM

  

4. Enable data roaming

• Go back to "Connections" and tap "Mobile networks"

  

• Toggle on Data roaming
