My Ubigi eSIM profile is installed and active on my iPhone/iPad but I don’t have any network displayed, what can I do?

When your Ubigi eSIM profile (“secondary” Plan) does not attach any network, it will be displayed as follows on your iPhone/iPad:

– the stepped network represents the signal status of your main line
– the dotted network just below represents the signal status of your Ubigi eSIM (“secondary” plan)
When the dots are all greyed out, it means that there is no connection to the network with the active eSIM profile.

To get a network, you must perform a manual network search. To do that, in your iPhone/iPad go to :

– Settings:


– Then select Mobile Data:


– Then in DATA PLANS, select your eSIM profile (“Secondary”/”Ubigi”):


– Choose Network selection


– After that, deactivate the automatic mode in order to perform a manual search:


– Finally, when the list of available networks is displayed, select the Ubigi network:


Note : You will see Ubigi appear or the name of our telecom partner in the country in which you are located (see here the list of our telecom partners by country in order to select the correct network).

Great connection all throughout our stay in Japan. We went to different cities and I can’t remember a time when my internet connection got weak or disconnected.

Small glitch to start -Works great now
Works great - now. Have used this before with no issues. This, upon arrival at destination, the e-sim slot was empty, despite having been purchased and activated before we left home. After about 1/2 hour of bot chat - I was connected with a real person who got us up and running. Took about 45 minutes overall (and finding free wi-fi to chat with) Will use it again for future trips.

I was in Japan for 12 days and stayed in Tokyo, Mount Fuji area and Kyoto and didn’t have any signal issues. My internet was fine and the amount of data I bought (25gb) was more than enough for that amount of days. Overall really happy with this eSIM.

Excellent service
Excellent service, very stable even in locations with poor signal. Didn’t have the opportunity to test the speed but the connection was good enough that I did not think about speed. The setup was really easy. The differentiating factor was having several plans with different duration and capacity. Pretty useful when you are on a budget.
