FAQ — eSIM for Tablets
Do I need a different eSIM plan for my tablet vs my phone?
No. AloOui eSIM plans work on any eSIM-compatible device — phone, tablet, or laptop. One plan, one QR code, activate on whichever device you choose.
Can I use the same eSIM on my phone and tablet at the same time?
No. An eSIM profile is tied to one device at a time. You would need to purchase a separate plan for each device.
My iPad is Wi-Fi only — can I use eSIM?
No. Wi-Fi-only iPad models do not have cellular hardware. eSIM requires a cellular-capable model. Check your iPad model on Apple's website to confirm.
Does AloOui eSIM support hotspot from a tablet?
Yes. AloOui plans include hotspot/tethering. You can share your tablet's data connection with other devices.
