Google Pixel 6 and eSIM: what to know

  • Add an eSIM: open Settings > Network & internet > SIMs, then tap the + (Add) button and follow the prompts to scan a QR code.
  • Find your EID: go to Settings > About phone and look for the EID entry, or dial *#06# to see it.
  • Keep your number: leave your main SIM on for calls and SMS, and choose the travel eSIM for mobile data under the SIMs menu.
  • Travel tip: turn on Roaming for the travel eSIM, and turn off data roaming on your home SIM to avoid surprise charges.

Install your eSIM Prime travel eSIM on the Pixel 6 over Wi-Fi before you leave, then activate it when you land. Your main number stays reachable, and WhatsApp keeps working as usual.
