Ready to install your new aloSIM eSIM on any compatible Samsung device? Great! You can choose a QR Code installation or a manual installation.

QR CODE INSTALLATION:

1. Tap "Install Your eSIM" and choose the "QR Code" installation
   (If you have an Samsung Galaxy S22 or newer, you can now take a screenshot of your QR code)
2. Go to "Settings" then "Connections"
3. Select "SIM card manager" then "Add mobile plan"
4. Select "Scan carrier QR code"
5. Scan the QR code (or tap the photo icon to upload the screenshot of the QR code, if applicable) 
6. When it says "Add the aloSIM plan to your phone?" hit "Continue" to complete the installation
7. Go back to "Connections," then select "Mobile networks"
8. Under "Access Point Names," make sure your eSIM's name is "aloSIM" and its APN is also "alosim" and save your changes. (If you've never done that before and you'd like a little more guidance, we have a separate post with instructions.)

ACCESSING YOUR DATA:

1. Go to "Settings" then "Connections" 
2. Choose "Mobile Network," turn on your eSIM, and enable Mobile Data & Data Roaming OR choose "SIM card manager," then "Preferred SIM card" and select your new eSIM
3. Remember that roaming should be ON for aloSIM, but OFF for your Primary SIM (if you have one) to avoid roaming charges with your primary carrier

MANUAL INSTALLATION:

1. Tap "Install Your eSIM" and choose "Manual" installation
2. Go to "Settings" then "Connections"
3. Select "SIM card manager" then "Add mobile plan"
4. Select "Scan carrier QR code" and then "Enter code instead"
5. Enter your eSIM details (SM-DP address and Activation Code)
6. When it says "Add the aloSIM plan to your phone?" hit "Continue" to complete the installation
7. Go back to "Connections," then select "Mobile networks"
8. Under "Access Point Names," make sure your eSIM's name is "aloSIM" and its APN is also "alosim" and save your changes. (If you've never done that before and you'd like a little more guidance, we have a separate post with instructions.)

ACCESSING YOUR DATA:

1. Go to "Settings" then "Connections" 
2. Choose "Mobile Network," turn on your eSIM, and enable Mobile Data & Data Roaming OR choose "SIM card manager," then "Preferred SIM card" and select your new eSIM
3. Remember that roaming should be ON for aloSIM, but OFF for your Primary SIM (if you have one) to avoid roaming charges with your primary carrier

Remember that eSIMs can only be installed once, on a single device, and eSIMs should not be deleted even after your package expires (because you may want to top it up someday).
