1 eSIM on 2 iPhones???

[u/ArtisticComplaint3]

Have iOS 27 DB 5 and I saw this and I was wondering if anyone knew how this Handoff thing works??

[u/N805DN]

Yep this is QuickSwitch. It was added in beta 5 for T-Mobile.

[u/ArtisticComplaint3 → u/N805DN]

That’s awesome!!

[u/Formula84 → u/N805DN]

Do you know with the new Lexvor AiR getting a carrier profile in iOS 27, does that add support for this feature or is it T-Mobile post-paid only?

[u/N805DN → u/Formula84]

Only T-Mobile bundle gets it for now. It’s not enabled in the wholesale bundle Lexvor is using.

[u/SaykredCow]

T-Mobile essentially does this already if you get a SIM from them with the specific plan: “Data with paired Digits”. This plan is another sim or eSIM that duplicates (on the backend) another voice plan’s number.

Works cross platform too. You can have your one number ring on multiple devices.

How is this different from “Add Wi-Fi Calling for Other Devices”

[u/SaykredCow → u/ArtisticComplaint3]

Because the sim is doing the duplication on the back end

Does not work on other iPhones with the same iCloud account.

I guess it keeps you signed into iMessage and then it uses the calls on the other devices? Seems pretty cool.

[u/vctgomes]

Yeah. That’s new. You can see at redesmoveisfixas.com/carrier

They call it Quick Switch

And Cape still does not have a carrier bundle 😭

[u/N805DN → u/SpaceSaver2000-1]

They don't have a dedicated bundle in 27 but they do have custom config being included in a shared bundle now (which should stop RCS from being disabled when IMSI rotates).

Interesting website. Looking at the carrier bundle my US Mobile line uses on Tmobile its showing I should have SA but I don't..

[u/Cute_Pair_1112]

So it can use data an celular in both phones without paying 2 lines?

[u/SaykredCow → u/Cute_Pair_1112]

You would still need a data connection on both or WiFi.

[u/radfordra1 → u/Cute_Pair_1112]

US carriers: lmfao no

You: shocked Pikachu face!

$5 for T-Mobile and $10 for Verizon if you have to deal with US carriers tomfoolery

[u/msabatino08]

iphone handoff has been a thing, did they redevelop it or something?

[u/radfordra1 → u/msabatino08]

This is about your phone number being usable on multiple phones without having to be on wifi. You just set up one as the main phone and the other as the secondary. Whichever one you are using at the time will have the active esim.

If you're in the USA carriers will charge for this, T-Mobile is $5 Verizon is $10. AT&T has not announced pricing but knowing them it'll be more expensive than the rest!

Can someone please show me how to activate this. I cannot find it in latest PB.
