Android users also enjoy a quick and straightforward setup. The classic QR code method is reliable, secure, and gets you connected in just a few simple steps.

Here’s your step-by-step eSIM activation for Android:

1. Find Your QR Code: After purchase, we’ll provide you with a unique QR code.
2. Go to Network Settings: On your Android device, navigate to Settings > Network & internet > SIMs.

After Installation: Finalizing Your Connection

Once your eSIM is installed, there are just a couple of quick settings to configure. This ensures your phone uses the right SIM for data and you avoid unexpected roaming charges from your primary carrier. This is what to do after installing your eSIM:

1. Label Your eSIM: Go to your phone’s cellular settings and give your new eSIM a custom label, like ‘Yoho Travel’ or ‘Europe Data’. This helps you easily distinguish it from your primary SIM.
2. Set for Cellular Data: Select your new Yoho Mobile eSIM as the default line for cellular data.
3. Enable Data Roaming: Make sure ‘Data Roaming’ is turned ON for your Yoho Mobile eSIM. This is necessary to connect to our partner networks abroad. Don’t worry, with our prepaid plans, you will never incur unexpected roaming charges.
