How do I setup eSIM on Google Pixel phones?

To activate your eSIM on your Google Pixel phone, you need a wireless carrier which provides you an eSIM profile as well as an eSIM data plan.

To download your eSIM profile, you will receive an “activation code” from an eSIM carrier. The activation code is in fact a download link. It is often in the format of a QR code that you will scan with the camera of your Google Pixel to install and activate your eSIM profile on your device.

To install and setup your eSIM profile on your Google Pixel phone with Ubigi, you can follow our step-by-step activation guide.


For Google Pixel users: While 5G access may not be supported due to device-specific settings, you can still enjoy connectivity in 3G/4G. For full compatibility details, we recommend checking with your device manufacturer.

Very easy to install, Great Price and Reliable Network
Very easy to install, application to track status of service is very clean and easy to use. Coverage in Japan was very good with Docomo (NTT) and Ubigi. Found the Unlimited term for the Unlimited plan a little bit miss leading, it is a shaped plan after 25gb. Otherwise, great cost per gb for a roaming SIM for data in Japan considering I was using my phone for a lot of video/media content and sharing the internet with a laptop.

Perfect and Affordable!
We used Ubigi while traveling in Portugal last year for the first time. This year, we’re traveling through Greece using Ubigi once again. So far, it’s been great!!

Connectivity in metropolitan cities was great but poor in Nashik …
This worked well in metropolitan cities like Mumbai and Bangalore but had poor or zero connectivity in Nashik. It was advertised as it will work over all major networks. People had no issues with physical sim in Nashik while eSIM did not work there .

Easy connection
I purchased another e-SIM provider, but ended up not being able to use it, not sure why, and that provider was helpful and ended up providing me with a refund. Then, I searched for which e-SIM provider is better to use in Japan, Ubigi pop-up, which I purchased. The connection was easy. I was worried that I couldn't get it connected because usually, I have my husband do that for me. However, surprisingly, it was very easy to connect. Good thing that it was connected just fine, so I won't feel lost without an internet connection, which I might not be able to connect with my family back home. Just a small piece of feedback is that sometimes I would lose the connections, but it will get back on again after a few minutes.
