How do I change my eSIM label?

Most phones will allow you to store multiple eSIM profiles and switch between them as needed. During eSIM installation, your device will automatically label your new eSIM. Afterward, you can go to your device's settings and change it there.

We recommend picking a name that easily identifies the eSIM (e.g., Italy eSIM or Airalo eSIM).

With the new Airalo, since one device uses a single connection for all your packages, you may prefer a more general label (e.g., "Airalo") rather than a destination-specific one, as the same connection will be used across multiple trips.

Note: The settings paths mentioned below may vary slightly depending on your device model and software version.

How do I know if I'm using the new Airalo or the public Airalo?

  • If the app asks you to set up your device once and buy packages, you are using the new Airalo. Simply open the Packages tab (formerly "My eSIMs") to complete setup, and after that, whenever you buy a new package for your desired destination, it will be added to that same device automatically—no new eSIM setup needed.
  • If the app shows individual eSIM installation instructions for each purchase and the My eSIMs tab instead of Packages, you are likely using the public Airalo.

Follow these steps to change an eSIM label on your iOS or Android device.
