You can't directly add a virtual SIM card to an iPhone. iPhones don't support eSIMs in the traditional sense. Instead, you can use a feature called eSIM which allows you to have multiple cellular plans on your iPhone.
Here's how you can add a cellular plan using eSIM:
- Check for eSIM Compatibility: Make sure your iPhone model supports eSIM. Most iPhones released after iPhone XS are eSIM compatible. You can check your iPhone's model by going to Settings > General > About.
- Contact Your Carrier: Contact your current carrier to inquire about eSIM availability and activation procedures.
- Scan a QR Code: Some carriers provide QR codes that you can scan to add an eSIM plan. You can find this code on the carrier's website or through their app.
- Enter the Details Manually: If a QR code is not available, you might need to enter the eSIM details manually. This information will be provided by your carrier.
- Follow On-Screen Instructions: After scanning the QR code or entering the details manually, follow the on-screen instructions to complete the eSIM activation process.
Note: You can have multiple eSIM profiles on your iPhone, allowing you to use different cellular plans for different purposes.
