Installing and using a Figabytes eSIM on an Android device is a simple, digital process. Once installed, you can start using mobile data without inserting a physical SIM card.
This guide walks you through how to install your eSIM and how to start using it once you arrive at your destination.
Before you begin, make sure your Android device is eSIM-compatible, unlocked, and connected to stable Wi-Fi.
Before You Start
Please confirm the following:
Your Android device supports eSIM
Your device is unlocked
You have a reliable Wi-Fi connection
Your device software is up to date
You have your Figabytes eSIM details ready
Step 1: Install the eSIM on Your Android Device
Option A: Install Using a QR Code (Recommended)
Open Settings
Go to Network & Internet or Connections
Tap SIMs or SIM Manager
Select Add eSIM or Add mobile plan
Choose Scan QR code
Scan the Figabytes eSIM QR code
Confirm installation and wait for the profile to download
Option B: Install Manually
If you can’t scan a QR code:
Open Settings → Network & Internet / Connections
Tap SIMs → Add eSIM
Select Enter activation details manually
Enter the SM-DP+ address and activation code provided by Figabytes
Confirm and complete installation
Keep your device connected to Wi-Fi until installation finishes.
Step 2: Label Your eSIM
After installation, name your eSIM so it’s easy to identify later.
Recommended labels:
“Figabytes Travel”
“Figabytes Data”
This is especially helpful if you use more than one SIM.
Step 3: When to Turn On the eSIM
If you install your eSIM before traveling:
Leave the Figabytes eSIM turned off

Once you arrive at your destination:
Open Settings
Go to Network & Internet / Connections → SIMs
Turn on your Figabytes eSIM
Set it as your mobile data line

Your device should connect to a local network within a few minutes.
If Mobile Data Doesn’t Work Immediately

Wait 1–2 minutes after enabling the eSIM
Restart your device
Manually select a network
Check that data roaming is enabled
