Android setup

Once the Atli eSIM is installed, set these three things. Menu names move around between makers, so match the words rather than the exact path.

1. Pick Atli for mobile data

• Settings › Connections › SIM manager
• Set mobile data to the Atli eSIM

If your phone only offers one primary SIM setting instead of separate ones for calls, texts and data, set Atli as primary while you are using it.

2. Turn data roaming ON for Atli

• Settings › Connections › Mobile networks
• Turn on Data roaming

Atli is a global eSIM, so roaming is how it connects. It is included and costs nothing extra.

If your phone sets roaming per SIM, Pixel does, turn it on for the Atli eSIM only.

3. Decide what your regular SIM does

Atli is data only. If calls and texts stay on your normal number, your operator can still charge you for calls you make and texts you send abroad. Receiving texts costs nothing.

• To avoid those charges, switch your regular SIM off for the trip
• With it off you will not get calls or texts on your normal number. WhatsApp, Telegram and the rest keep working over Atli data

When you get home

• Settings › Connections › Mobile networks › turn Data roaming off
• Settings › Connections › SIM manager › set mobile data back to your regular SIM

Or just switch the Atli eSIM off until the next trip.
