Why a Smooth eSIM Transfer Matters for Travelers
With devices like the iPhone 17 likely embracing an eSIM-only design, the era of physical SIM cards is drawing to a close. According to the GSMA (Groupe Spéciale Mobile Association), eSIM technology offers greater security and flexibility, which is fantastic news for international travelers. Transferring your eSIM correctly means you don’t lose your valuable data plans or your connection to the world.
A seamless transfer ensures that your travel plans aren’t disrupted. Imagine landing in a new country like Japan, ready to explore, only to find you have no data to use navigation apps. A proper Yoho Mobile eSIM transfer means your pre-purchased Japan data plan is ready to go on your new device, saving you from expensive roaming charges or the hunt for a local SIM card.

- Physical Proximity: Keep both devices near each other with Bluetooth turned on.
- Latest iOS: Make sure both phones are updated to the latest version of iOS to access Apple’s most recent transfer features.
- Device Passcodes: You’ll need the passcodes for both iPhones if they are locked.
