How to Install the ORA eSIM on Your iOS Device (QR Code)

Updated over 3 weeks ago

Follow these steps to install your ORA eSIM using the QR code.

We recommend doing this one day before you travel so everything is ready upon arrival:

  1. šŸ”‘ Log In & Open Your Dashboard

    • Visit orasim.io and sign in to your account.

    • Go to ā€œMy eSIM Portfolioā€ and select the plan you want to install.

  2. šŸ”³ Reveal Your QR Code

    • Click on the plan card and switch to the ā€œInstallationā€ tab.

    • Tap ā€œUse QR Codeā€ to reveal it on screen.

  3. šŸ“„ Scan or Tap the QR Code

    • On the same iPhone where you’ll travel with the eSIM, point your camera at the QR code (or tap it if you’re already viewing it on that device).

    • When prompted, tap ā€œInstallā€, no extra menu navigation needed.

  4. āœ… Follow On-Screen Prompts

    • Your iPhone will show a series of prompts (e.g., ā€œAdd Cellular Planā€). Tap ā€œContinueā€ or ā€œInstallā€ as directed.

    • Wait a few moments for iOS to finish downloading and setting up the eSIM.

  5. šŸŽ‰ Confirm Installation

    • After setup completes, you’ll see a confirmation screen (e.g., ā€œCellular Plan Addedā€).

    • Tap ā€œDoneā€ to exit installation.

  6. āœˆļø Enable Data Roaming

    • Go to Settings → Cellular (or Mobile Data).

    • Tap the newly installed ORA provider plan (e.g., ā€œ3HK eSIMā€ or ā€œUbigi Global eSIMā€).

    • Toggle Data Roaming ON to ensure the eSIM activates when you arrive.

    • Make sure Data Roaming is OFF for any other SIM/eSIM profiles.

šŸŽ’ That’s it! Your ORA eSIM is now installed and ready to auto-activate the moment you land at your destination.
