How can I enable my Ubigi eSIM profile on my Android device when I want to use it again?

If you want to reactivate your Ubigi eSIM profile (even temporarily) on your Android device :

1 – Go to Settings > Connections > then SIM card manager and activate the Ubigi eSIM profile (NB: if you have not renamed it yet, the name “secondary” will appear):


2 – For Mobile Data, select the eSIM profile corresponding to Ubigi

3 – Then go to Settings > Connections > Mobile Networks and activate “Data Roaming”

4 – Finally go to Access points name > in there select the Ubigi eSIM (at the bottom right of the screen) > add an APN > fill in the name= Ubigi and APN= mbb then SAVE.

You can now use your Ubigi eSIM connection!

(NB: These settings are stored if you simply activate/deactivate the profile. Everything will be erased if you delete the profile)

You can also find those instructions on the video below.

We recommend you to never delete your Ubigi eSIM profile when you travel or when you do not use it as you can simply deactivate it as described above, until you need it again.

Regional sim
I got the regional sim for Asia. Coverage was decent but the speed was noticeably slower than my friends. The data usage is not real time. The app said that I have about 200 mb left but the service got cut off. Overall not bad for the price.

Ubigi has made it easy for me and my partner to stay connected online at such an affordable price when we travelled to Hong Kong. I definitely recommend!

Had trouble with the initial activation, all of the anticipated functionality was not there. Ended up deleting and restarting which generated some issues as well. Even though I thought I had requested phone functionality, unable to make international or calls within US. However access linked to data usage was good.
