How to install

  1. Scan the QR code at home on Wi-Fi: iPhone — Settings → Cellular → Add eSIM; Android — Settings → Connections → SIM manager.
  2. Keep your home SIM: bank SMS keep arriving on it.
  3. After landing, pick the eSIM for mobile data and turn on data roaming for it.

Tips before you go

  • A week in Baku with maps and Bolt usually needs about 3 GB.
  • Mountain areas (Shahdag, Qusar) have weaker coverage; download offline maps.
  • Install at home and switch it on after landing.
