How can I disable my Ubigi eSIM profile on my Android device when I travel or when I’m not using it?
If you need to temporarily deactivate your Ubigi eSIM profile on your Android device when you travel or when you’re not using it, follow these steps:
1 – On your device, go to Settings > Connections > SIM Card Manager :
2 – Locate the Ubigi eSIM profile (note: if you haven’t renamed it, it may appear as “Secondary”), then tap the toggle switch next to it to disable it. The switch will turn gray once it is deactivated.
Your Ubigi eSIM profile is now deactivated.
You simply reactivate/deactivateyour eSIM profile at any time by following the same steps. You can also watch the video below for a visual guide.
We recommend that you do not delete your Ubigi eSIM profile when you travel or when you’re not using it, as you can simply deactivate it as described above and reactivate it whenever needed.

Fast Support & Reliable eSIM in Japan
Really impressed with Ubigi’s support. I accidentally bought the wrong plan, and they helped me to find a way to fix it. They replied super fast and resolved everything quickly and professionally, which was especially helpful since I had just started my trip.
My whole family used their eSIM during our trip to Japan, and the connection was stable, fast, and reliable throughout.
Would definitely recommend.

I have really enjoyed using Ubigi
I have really enjoyed using Ubigi. I forgot how to switch everything over after a 17 hour flight but after one night of sleep it was easy to figure out the steps.
