There is no 3G to fall back on
Verizon retired its CDMA and 3G network at the end of 2022. It says a device without VoLTE will no longer make or receive calls, send or receive texts, or use data on its network. Google warns that some phones without VoLTE, or without VoLTE roaming, can lose voice calling altogether, including calls to 911. An older handset that is fine at home can be inert here. Check VoLTE is switched on before you fly.
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.
United States eSIM questions, answered flatly.
Where do I buy an eSIM for United States?
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.
