YOGYAKARTA - The use of more than 1 SIM card in one cellphone is common for Android smartphone users. But, actually Dual SIM can also be used on iPhone phones.

However, slightly different from using Dual SIM on Android phones, for iPhone devices, users must activate it first by changing device settings.

Even so, users don't need to bother coming to the Apple Center to activate it, because you can do this yourself because the method is quite easy.

iPhone users just need to check if your smartphone supports Dual SIM usage in 1 device. The trick, check the IMEI of your phone whether the device supports the use of eSIM.

Unlike Android smartphones that provide 2 SIM card slots on their devices, the use of Dual SIM on iPhone is 1 SIM card slot and 1 eSIM slot that you can activate.

To help users activate Dual SIM on iPhone devices, the VOI team has compiled the steps that you can follow below to make eSIM activation easier.

How to Activate iPhone eSIM

If you want to use Dual SIM on iPhone, then users can use an eSIM, which is an electronic SIM card that can be activated by contacting the operator of the SIM network provider.

To do this, open the "Settings" menu on the main page of your iPhone. After that, click the "Cellular" option in the Settings menu, then you will be presented with several Cellular settings options.

To enable Dual SIM on iPhone devices, users can select the "Add Cellular Plan" option. After that, you will be asked to scan the QR code listed on the eSIM from the operator that you prepared earlier.

After the scanning process is successful, click Add "Mobile Plan". You will be presented with several options for default settings for using the eSIM, for example for internet data or for phone calls.

After that Click "Finish" and wait a few moments until the network menu bar of the eSIM appears at the top of your phone screen.

If the eSIM menu bar has appeared on the phone screen, then Dual SIM on your iPhone is active, and users can use 2 numbers at once in 1 device like using an Android smartphone.

That is the way you can do to use the Dual SIM feature on iPhone phones. Users can activate the eSIM in the settings menu on your device.
