How to Scan QR Code for AloOui eSIM Activation — Complete iOS & Android Guide
How do you scan your AloOui eSIM installation code?
Open your compatible phone's supported Add eSIM method, scan the issued QR code and follow the download prompts while connected to reliable internet. Use the instructions supplied with the order. Installing the profile is different from connecting to destination mobile data and starting travel-data validity.
Prepare the code and phone
- Confirm exact-model and regional-version eSIM support and carrier unlocking.
- Open the delivery details for the correct order on a trusted screen.
- Check SIM settings for an existing installation before starting again.
- Complete any internet sign-in so the phone can download the profile.
- Keep the full QR clear and private. Reduce glare if displaying it on another screen.
A generic barcode reader is not a substitute for the device's supported mobile-plan setup method. Keep activation credentials out of public posts and AI prompts.
Scan on a supported iPhone
- Open Settings and find Cellular or Mobile Data, then Add eSIM. Labels vary by software and region.
- Choose the available QR-code method and scan the issued installation code.
- Follow the prompts until the profile download completes.
- Label the profile AloOui or Travel where supported.
- Review which line will provide mobile data and follow the purchased connection instructions when ready.
If the code is displayed on the same phone, use an applicable manufacturer-supported same-device method. Otherwise display the issued code on another trusted screen or use supplied manual details where supported. Do not assume every app or attachment offers the same installation action.
Use the setup method for your exact device

Other models have different menus, supported methods and restrictions. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for the exact phone and software rather than applying one brand's path to every device.
If no installation option is available, use the device-readiness checklist before buying another plan. A purchase cannot add missing hardware or remove a carrier lock.
Manual entry is another input method
Use manual installation only when the order supplies the required details and the device supports it. Enter the issued values exactly.
Manual entry does not bypass an invalid, expired or already-used entitlement. Do not guess missing values or borrow another traveller's code.
After the profile downloads
Confirm it appears in SIM settings and keep it installed. Follow any order-specific completion steps. When ready in supported coverage, enable the travel line, select it for mobile data and apply its roaming and APN instructions.
Review home-line data roaming, default calls and automatic data switching separately. Home-line calls and SMS remain subject to the carrier's terms. An ordinary data-only purchase does not automatically add a number or native calls and SMS.
AloOui travel-data validity starts on connection to a supported network in an included destination, not installation alone. A covered home location or stopover can start it before the main stay. Follow number-enabled products' separate instructions and any installation or activation deadline for the purchase.
Test a small webpage once supported destination service is available. A completed installation does not establish coverage outside the purchased list or reception everywhere within it.
If the next step fails
For unreadable images, invalid or used-code messages, use the QR-code troubleshooting guide. It separates image reading, credential rejection and existing installations.
For a profile already installed without mobile data, use the first-connection checklist rather than scanning repeatedly.
Keep the profile installed while checking recovery options. AloOui provides customer support. Share the order reference, exact model, error and installation status privately. Reinstallation, transfer and replacement options depend on the actual order and profile.
Plan a future trip with Shop with AI
Use Shop with AI on the AloOui website or app with your itinerary, dates and expected usage. Confirm the selected package before checkout. For an existing setup error, resolve the current order first rather than treating another purchase as a fix.
Download AloOui for an easier shopping experience from the Apple App Store or Google Play. Downloading the app does not itself install or activate the travel profile.
Scanning FAQs
Can I install before departure?
Follow the purchased instructions on a supported unlocked device with reliable internet. Installation alone does not start AloOui travel-data validity.
Can I use a code shown on the same phone?
Use a supported same-device method where available, another trusted screen or supplied manual details where supported.
Does scanning remove my home SIM?
It adds a profile where supported. Available active-line combinations vary; review line settings separately.
Can I reuse the QR code?
Do not assume so. Check for an existing installation and ask support about the selected profile's recovery options.
Does manual entry fix expired credentials?
No. It changes the input method, not the entitlement.
Does scanning guarantee destination service?
No. Supported coverage, remaining validity and allowance, and correct connection settings still matter.
