iPad Pro 11-inch (4th generation) and eSIM: what to know

The iPad Pro 11-inch (4th generation) supports eSIM, but only on the Wi-Fi + Cellular models. The Wi-Fi-only version has no cellular modem, so it cannot use an eSIM. You can store several eSIM profiles on the iPad, and the cellular models can use an eSIM alongside a physical nano-SIM, depending on your model and region.

Add an eSIM: go to Settings > Cellular Data > Add eSIM (or Set Up Cellular Data), then scan the QR code or follow the on-screen steps.
Find your EID: open Settings > General > About and scroll down to the EID entry. You can tap and hold it to copy.
Label your plans: give each plan a clear name, such as "Travel", so you can pick the right one for cellular data.
Travel tip: before you land, check that your travel eSIM is selected for Cellular Data and that Data Roaming is off on your home plan.

Install your eSIM Prime travel eSIM on the iPad before your trip while you still have Wi-Fi, then turn it on when you arrive. Your main SIM stays in place, so your home number and WhatsApp keep working on your phone.
