To install an eSIM on a Samsung Galaxy, open Settings, tap Connections, then SIM manager, tap Add eSIM, choose Scan QR code from service provider, and scan the QR from your SimVala dashboard. It takes about two minutes.

  • A Galaxy S20 or newer, or another eSIM-capable Galaxy
  • One UI reasonably up to date
  • A Wi-Fi or existing connection to install the profile
  • Your eSIM QR code, open in your SimVala dashboard on another screen

Menu names vary a little

Wording can differ slightly between OS versions, but the flow is the same: find the SIM or cellular settings, add an eSIM, and scan the QR from your dashboard.

Troubleshooting

SIM manager has no Add eSIM

Update One UI, or check our device support guide, since some regional or older Galaxy models lack eSIM.

No connection after install

In SIM manager, turn the eSIM line on, enable Roaming for the travel line, and set it as the data SIM.

The scan fails

Open the QR on another screen with good lighting, or use manual entry if your dashboard shows the details.
