Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
How long does the Yoho Mobile eSIM transfer to a new iPhone 17 take?
The transfer process is incredibly fast. Using the iOS 26 Quick Start feature, the entire on-screen procedure and activation should take no more than 2-3 minutes. This is much faster than waiting for a physical SIM card to be delivered and activated.
Can I transfer my Yoho Mobile eSIM if I already set up my iPhone 17?
Yes. If you skipped the cellular setup during the initial Quick Start, you can still transfer your eSIM. Go to Settings > Cellular > Add eSIM. You should see an option to âTransfer From Nearby iPhone.â Follow the on-screen prompts to complete the process.
Will my old eSIM on the previous iPhone still work after the transfer?
No. Once the eSIM is successfully transferred and activated on your new iPhone 17, the eSIM profile on your old device will be automatically and permanently deactivated. This is a security measure to ensure your number is only active on one device at a time, as outlined by GSMA standards.
What should I do if the eSIM transfer fails on iOS 26?
First, ensure both phones are connected to a stable Wi-Fi network and are close to each other. Restart both devices and try the transfer process again. If the issue persists, please visit our contact page for assistance. Our team is available 24/7 to help you get connected.
