Install eSIM on iPhone 15 / 15 Plus / 15 Pro / 15 Pro Max

Follow these steps to install your travel eSIM. You need your QR code (emailed after purchase) and an internet connection to scan it.

  1. 1

    Scan the QR code

    Open the Camera app and point it at your eSIM QR code. When 'Cellular Plan Available' appears, tap it. Or go to Settings → Cellular → Add Cellular Plan and scan the code.

  2. 2

    Add and label

    Tap 'Add Cellular Plan'. If asked, give it a name like 'Europe' or 'Travel Data'. Confirm to install.

  3. 3

    Activate abroad

    The eSIM is installed but inactive. When you arrive, go to Settings → Cellular → select your travel plan → turn on 'Turn On This Line' or set it for Cellular Data.

Tip

iPhone 15 (US) uses eSIM only – no physical SIM slot. Your Canadian plan and travel eSIM both use eSIM.
