A Germany eSIM on Android must be supported by the exact phone model, regional variant and carrier configuration. Menu names differ across Samsung, Google Pixel and other manufacturers, so use the device’s SIM or network settings rather than relying on one universal path.
Install the profile before travel on reliable Wi-Fi, then choose it for mobile data after arrival.
NoveSIM travel eSIMs are data-only and do not provide standard calls, SMS or a German telephone number.
Quick answer: Confirm that Add eSIM appears in settings and that the phone is unlocked. Scan the QR code once, label the plan, select it for data in Germany, follow the roaming instruction and enter data.esim if an APN is required.

Look for Add eSIM, Download SIM or Add mobile plan in the network settings. The same model name may have variants without eSIM, so confirm on the actual handset.
Install the Android profile
- Connect to stable Wi-Fi.
- Open Network & Internet, Connections or SIM Manager.
- Choose Add eSIM.
- Scan the supplied QR code.
- Label the line Germany or Travel.
Select the correct data SIM
After arrival, turn on the travel line and select it for mobile data. Keep the home SIM for calls or verification texts if needed, but disable its data roaming and automatic data switching.
Apply roaming and APN instructions
Travel eSIMs may require data roaming on their own line. If manual APN entry is required, use data.esim. Do not copy APN values from an unrelated provider.
Fix common Android issues
Toggle flight mode, restart, confirm the selected data SIM and leave network selection automatic. Keep the profile installed. The Germany eSIM troubleshooting guide gives the safe order.
