Facebook may not load on a Ugandan network
Uganda blocked Facebook on 12 January 2021, ahead of that year's general election, and has never fully restored it. Freedom House's 2025 report found the platform still blocked on some mobile networks, though it is routinely reached through other providers. Whether Facebook loads in Uganda therefore depends on which network your phone is on, not on your device or your plan.
Will it work on your phone?
iPhone XS or newer, and most Android handsets from the last few years. If your phone is locked to a carrier it has to be unlocked first, and that is true of any eSIM, including ours.
Uganda eSIM questions, answered flatly.
Where do I buy an eSIM for Uganda?
In the app, on iPhone or Android. There is no web checkout and no desktop account. The app is the whole product.
Do I keep my own number?
Yes. Boring eSIM runs alongside the SIM already in your phone, so calls, texts, WhatsApp and iMessage stay on your usual number. The eSIM only carries data.
What does unlimited actually mean?
Unlimited data for every day on your plan. There is no gigabyte allowance to run down and no add-on to buy when it runs out, because it does not run out. When the days end, the plan ends.
How is it priced?
Pick a destination and the exact number of days, from 1 to 30, and the app shows one price for that trip in your currency: USD, EUR, GBP, TRY, JPY, AUD, CAD or AED. That price is what you pay. Nothing else is added.
What happens when my days run out?
Nothing happens on its own. There is no contract and no auto-renew. Add more days in the app, or leave it and carry on with your normal SIM.
Can I use one plan in more than one country?
Each plan covers its own destination. If you are crossing several countries, buy a plan for each, or add more days to the one you are using. Everything is done in the app.
No roaming bill. No plastic SIM. No drama.
Get the app, pick a country, and forget about it until you land.
