Anon eSIM on Pixel 9 Pro
Your Pixel 9 Pro supports eSIM - installing Anon eSIM takes about a minute, and your existing SIM keeps working alongside it.
Install steps
- 1. Open Settings → Network & Internet → SIMs (Samsung: Settings → Connections → SIM manager).
- 2. Tap + → Download a SIM instead / Add eSIM.
- 3. Scan the QR we show after payment.
- 4. Enable mobile data on the new SIM and keep your primary for calls/SMS.
- 5. Turn Data Roaming ON for the Anon eSIM line only.
The APN configures itself with the profile - no manual settings on Android. The one requirement worth checking before you travel: the Pixel 9 Pro must be carrier-unlocked. A phone still locked to its original carrier refuses outside profiles.
Dual SIM on the Pixel 9 Pro
The standard travel setup keeps two lines active: your primary SIM for calls, texts, and 2FA codes (with its data roaming OFF so it can't rack up day-pass fees), and Anon eSIM as the data line. Android shows separate signal indicators for each and lets you flip the data line in one tap - useful if you want to switch back on Wi-Fi-only days.
If it doesn't connect
Ninety percent of "no service" reports are one of three toggles: Data Roaming off on the Anon line, mobile data still routed to the primary SIM, or a stale network scan - toggle airplane mode once after landing. If the line stays on "Searching" for more than a couple of minutes, manually select a partner network from Settings once; after that, automatic selection takes over. Balance empty? Data stops cleanly - top up and it resumes within a minute.
Pixel 9 Pro eSIM FAQ
Does the Pixel 9 Pro support eSIM?+
Yes. The Pixel 9 Pro has a built-in eSIM chip and works with Anon eSIM out of the box. The only requirement is that the device is carrier-unlocked - a carrier-locked phone rejects any outside profile, physical or eSIM.
How do I install Anon eSIM on the Pixel 9 Pro?+
Open Settings → Network & Internet (or Connections) → SIMs → Add eSIM / Download a SIM instead, then scan the QR code we show after payment. The profile downloads and activates in about a minute.
Can I keep my main SIM active on the Pixel 9 Pro?+
Yes - dual SIM is the normal setup. Keep your primary line for calls, texts, and 2FA codes, and set Anon eSIM as the mobile-data line while traveling. Android lets you choose per-line which SIM handles data.
Why isn't my Pixel 9 Pro connecting after install?+
Check three things in order: Data Roaming is ON for the Anon eSIM line (it's a roaming profile everywhere by design), the Anon eSIM line is selected for mobile data, and airplane mode has been toggled once to force a fresh network scan. The APN configures itself - never enter one manually.
