If your Android phone doesn’t support eSIMs, it can be a bit frustrating. But don’t worry, there are ways to work around this. One of the best solutions is using an external eSIM device.

Use an eSIM.me Adapter

Using an external eSIM adapter like the eSIM.me adapter can let you take advantage of eSIM tech on a non-eSIM Android phone, making your life a bit easier and more connected.

The adapter is a handy little device that you can insert into your phone’s SIM slot, turning it into an eSIM-capable device. The adapter comes with an app to help you manage your eSIM profiles and settings.

How to Use the eSIM.me Adapter

Step 1: Check Compatibility

Before you buy your eSIM.me SIM card, make sure your phone is compatible with it. Please install the eSIM.me software and do a compatibility check.

Step 2: Purchase the Adapter

If your phone is compatible, you need to get an eSIM.me SIM card to install the eSIM on your device. You can buy one here. Wait for it to be delivered to your address.

Step 3: Install and Activate

Install the eSIM.me software and insert the SIM card. The instructions and screenshots in this article will guide you clearly through the process.

Things to Keep in Mind

  • Make sure your carrier supports eSIM and provides the necessary activation codes or QR codes.
  • Double-check that the eSIM.me adapter and app are compatible with your phone model.
  • Stick to the instructions from the eSIM.me adapter manufacturer for the best experience.

A Note from StaffTraveler

We put together this article to help out anyone with phones that don’t support eSIM. Keep in mind that StaffTraveler doesn’t officially support non-eSIM devices, so we can’t provide support for them.

Also, the eSIM.me adapter is only for Android phones. While it’s working now, we can’t guarantee it’ll always work perfectly. Use it at your own risk.
