Manually Install Your DataFly eSIM For iPhone Devices

This guide explains how to manually install your new eSIM on an iPhone. This option is helpful if you prefer not to use the Quick Install feature, or if you want to send the eSIM details to someone else so they can install it on their own iPhone. This guide covers the full process, from accessing your eSIM installation details to completing the installation and enabling data roaming.

Before you begin, please make sure you have the following:

  • A stable internet connection

  • An iPhone that supports eSIM

  • An iPhone that is carrier-unlocked

Part 1: Get Your eSIM Installation Details

  1. Open the DataFly app.

  2. Tap "My eSIMs".

  3. Tap "Manual Install" for the eSIM you want to install.
