A few things to know before you scan the QR code:
- •Open the QR code on a second device (your laptop or another phone) so you can scan it with your Pixel.
- •Keep your Wi-Fi connection stable the whole time. Dropping connection mid-scan causes errors.
- •The QR code is single-use. Once scanned, it cannot be scanned again.
- •Do not delete the eSIM after installing it. An eSIM is not transferable between devices once installed, so deleting it means losing your plan.
A few things to know before you start the manual install:
- •Each manual activation code is single-use. Do not share it or enter it twice.
- •Stay on Wi-Fi throughout the whole process. Losing your connection mid-install can cause errors.
- •Once installed, this eSIM is locked to your Pixel. An eSIM is not transferable between devices once installed, so removing it means losing your plan.

Google Pixel Tips Worth Knowing
- eSIM Transfer:When setting up a new Pixel, you can transfer your HelloRoam eSIM wirelessly during the device setup flow. A HelloRoam eSIM is tied to your original device and is not transferable once installed outside of this initial setup flow.
- Dual eSIM (Pixel 9):Pixel 9, 9 Pro, and 9 Pro XL run two active eSIMs at the same time. Keep your Canadian number live on Bell, Rogers, or Telus and use a HelloRoam local data plan while you are away.
- Fast Setup:Stock Android on Pixel has fewer setup steps than any other Android device. Most travellers are connected in under 2 minutes.
- Android 15 Users:On Android 15, the SIM path changed to Settings > Network and Internet > Internet > tap the plus icon next to SIMs.
