How to Change Your eSIM Label

Most modern smartphones support multiple eSIM profiles, allowing you to easily switch between them as needed. When you initially set up an eSIM, your device typically assigns a default label automatically. However, you can personalize this label later for easier identification.

Follow these simple steps to update your eSIM label on iOS and Android devices:

For iOS Devices

  1. Open Settings.
  2. Tap Cellular or Mobile Data.
  3. Under the SIMs section, select the eSIM you want to rename.
  4. Tap Cellular Plan Label.
  5. Tap the current label to edit it.
  6. Enter your preferred custom name.

For Samsung Galaxy Devices

  1. Launch Settings.
  2. Tap Connections.
  3. Select SIM Card Manager.
  4. Choose the eSIM profile you'd like to rename.
  5. Tap on the eSIM name or profile.
  6. Enter your desired label.
  7. Tap Done to save your changes.

For Google Pixel Devices

  1. Open Settings.
  2. Tap Network & Internet.
  3. Select SIMs, then pick the eSIM you wish to edit.
  4. Tap the pencil icon.
  5. Enter your new eSIM label (you can also change the label's color if desired).
  6. Tap Save to apply the changes.

Your eSIM should now display the new label on your device. Feel free to update the label as many times as you'd like — it’s a quick way to keep your profiles organized.
