Important requirements
Before you buy, there are two things to double-check:
Your device must be carrier-unlocked. If you bought your phone on a plan, check with your carrier that it's been unlocked. Locked devices cannot use third-party eSIMs like Roamly.
You need Wi-Fi to install. The eSIM profile is downloaded over the internet, so make sure you have a Wi-Fi connection during installation.
