How to install an eSIM on your iPhone automatically

Got your JamboSim confirmation mail? Then you already have everything you need. Tap the install link, confirm a few screens, and iOS adds the eSIM profile for you. 🎉

In this clip we go through it step by step on a real iPhone: opening the install link, adding the plan, giving it a clear label like "JamboSim", and choosing which line handles data while you travel.

One tip before you fly: install the eSIM at home over Wi-Fi. Installing is free and does not start your bundle — your data days begin when the eSIM connects to a network abroad.

Frequently asked

Does installing the eSIM start my data plan?

No. Installing only puts the profile on your phone. Your plan starts the moment the eSIM connects to a supported network at your destination.

Which iPhones support automatic installation?

Every eSIM-capable iPhone on iOS 17.4 or newer. Older iOS versions still work fine with the QR code or manual method.

Can I keep my normal number active?

Yes. Your home SIM stays in place for calls and SMS; you simply set the JamboSim eSIM as your data line.
