Transfer eSIM to new phone.

[JCDean]

I am buying a new iPhone to replace my current phone. Can I just transfer the eSIM to the new phone while I’m transferring my data?

hi @JCDean this is the problem for eSIM, you need to pay for a new one every time you switch phone.

finstall PM app on your phone, login and buy eSIM there from the Subscription & Add-ons page

Unfortunately, no.  You will need to login into your PM app on your new phone.  Then purchase a new ESIM card for $5.  Unable to transfer eSIM between phones at the present time.

nope...you now need to use that new phone to download a new esim. Alternative is to just use a hard sim.
