What should my iPhone’s Cellular screen look like when using eSIM?
When using eSIM on your iPhone, the **Cellular** (or **Mobile Data**) screen will display specific information about your active plans. Here’s what you can typically expect to see:
Elements on the Cellular Screen:
1. **Cellular Plans List**:
– You’ll see your active cellular plans listed. Each plan will have a name or label that you set (like “Personal,” “Business,” “Travel,” etc.).
2. **Plan Status**:
– Next to each plan, you may see indicators such as “Active” or “Inactive,” showing whether that plan is currently in use.
3. **Data Usage**:
– Information about data usage for each plan, typically showing how much data you’ve used for the current period.
4. **Primary Line Selection**:
– If you have multiple plans, you can select which one is your default line for calls, texts, and data. This option will be clearly marked.
5. **Cellular Data Options**:
– Settings for turning on or off **Cellular Data** for each plan.
– Options to switch data from one line to another if you have multiple plans.
6. **Cellular Data Network Settings**:
– You may also find options to configure settings for LTE, APN (Access Point Name), and more for each plan.
7. **Call and Message Settings**:
– You can see which line is set for default voice and messaging services.
Visual Layout:
– The screen should be organized and easy to read, typically with separate sections for each cellular plan. The labels and data usage sections will help you quickly identify which plan is which.
Example:
– If you have an eSIM for travel and a physical SIM for your home carrier, the screen might look something like this:
– **Travel Plan**: Active | Data Used: 1.5 GB
– **Home Carrier**: Inactive
This setup allows you to manage and monitor your eSIM and any other cellular plans efficiently. If you ever have trouble or don’t see what’s expected, ensuring your iPhone is updated to the latest iOS version can help resolve any issues.
