Romania eSIM APN Settings for NoveSIM

NoveSIM | Last updated on: October 1, 2026 | 4 minute read

The NoveSIM APN is data.esim. Manual entry is relevant when the Romania eSIM is installed and registered but mobile data still does not pass, or when the supplied setup instructions explicitly request it.

This value is specific to NoveSIM guidance. It is not a claim that most travel eSIM providers use the same APN, and it should not be replaced with the APN of Orange, Digi or Vodafone simply because one of those names appears as the host network.

NoveSIM travel eSIMs provide data only. We do not provide a Romanian number, conventional calls or SMS. Keep the profile installed while checking its settings.

Quick answer: Select the NoveSIM line, open its mobile-data network settings and enter data.esim in the APN field when manual configuration is required. Leave username and password blank unless your order instructions state otherwise, then retest mobile data.

Top Romania eSIMs

Check the basics before changing the APN

  • The NoveSIM line is turned on.
  • It is selected for mobile data.
  • The plan is active and includes Romania.
  • The required roaming setting is enabled on the travel line.
  • The phone has registered on a supported partner network.

If the line is not active or registered, APN editing alone will not solve the problem. Use the Romania activation guide first.

NoveSIM APN values

Field Value
APN data.esim
Username Leave blank unless instructed otherwise
Password Leave blank unless instructed otherwise

Enter the APN exactly, without spaces before or after it. Do not copy settings from the primary SIM.

Enter the APN on iPhone

  1. Open Settings.
  2. Tap Cellular or Mobile Service.
  3. Select the NoveSIM line.
  4. Open Cellular Data Network when that option is available.
  5. Enter data.esim in the Cellular Data APN field.
  6. Return to the previous screen so the setting is retained.
  7. Toggle Airplane Mode once and test a webpage.

Menu names and editable fields vary by iOS version, device and carrier configuration. If the APN menu is absent or locked, do not remove the eSIM; contact support with the phone model and screenshots.

Enter the APN on Android

  1. Open Settings.
  2. Choose Network & Internet, Connections or the manufacturer’s equivalent.
  3. Select the NoveSIM line and open Access Point Names.
  4. Create or edit the applicable APN.
  5. Enter data.esim as the APN value.
  6. Save the entry and select it if the phone requires selection.
  7. Toggle Airplane Mode once and test mobile data.

Android navigation differs between Samsung, Google, Xiaomi and other manufacturers. Do not alter unrelated fields merely to match another phone’s screenshot.

Test the connection correctly

Turn off WiFi temporarily and open a lightweight webpage. If it loads, reconnect WiFi as needed. If signal exists but the page does not load, confirm the selected data line and plan status again.

For registration problems, follow the manual network-selection guide. For a working but slow connection, use the Romania slow-data checklist.

Do not delete the eSIM to clear an APN problem

Deleting the profile can remove the ability to test it and may require replacement installation credentials. Record the current settings and contact support while reliable WiFi is available.

The Romania installation guide covers the original setup process but should not be used as a reason to reinstall without instruction.

FAQ

What is the NoveSIM APN for Romania?

Use data.esim when manual APN configuration is required for the NoveSIM profile.

Should I use a Romanian operator’s APN?

No. The visible host network does not replace the APN supplied for the NoveSIM travel eSIM.

Why can’t I edit APN settings on my phone?

The menu may be hidden or managed by the device, operating system or carrier profile. Keep the eSIM installed and contact support.

Should I delete the eSIM if data still fails?

No. Check activation, the selected data line, roaming and network registration, then provide support with the results.

Final Recommendation

Use data.esim as the NoveSIM APN for Romania when manual entry is required. Treat it as a provider-specific value, not a universal travel-eSIM setting.

Verify activation and the selected data line before editing the APN. Test with WiFi off and change only fields required by the supplied instructions.

Keep the installed eSIM if the connection still fails. A preserved profile and recorded settings give support the best chance to resolve the problem.
