1.
On your iPhone, open the Watch app, and tap on the “Mobile Data” tab. If you don’t see the “Mobile Data” tab, your Apple Watch does not support eSIM.

Make sure your Apple Watch is running the latest version of watchOS. You can check this by going to the “General” settings on your Apple Watch and tap on “Software Update.” If an update is available, follow the instructions to install it.

In the “Mobile Data” tab, tap on “Add a Plan.” A list of carriers that support eSIM on Apple Watch will be displayed. Select the carrier you want to use for your eSIM plan.
Follow the instructions provided by the carrier to activate the plan. This includes scanning a QR code, entering a confirmation code, or signing up for a plan through the carrier’s website or app.
Once the plan is activated, you will see the carrier name and plan details on the “Cellular” tab in the Watch app.
To use the eSIM, make sure that your Apple Watch is connected to a cellular network. You can check this by swiping up on the watch face to access the Control Center, and then tapping on the “Cellular” icon. The cellular icon should have a green dot to indicate that it is connected to a cellular network.
Once your Apple Watch is connected to a cellular network, you can make and receive calls and send and receive messages directly on your Apple Watch, even when it is not connected to your iPhone.
