Can I Receive Phone Calls on My Primary Number While Using encryptSIM?

Yes, you can still receive calls on your primary number while using encryptSIM, as long as your device supports Dual SIM Dual Standby (DSDS) or Dual SIM Dual Active (DSDA) functionality. This allows you to keep your primary SIM active for calls and texts while encryptSIM provides your mobile data.

How Dual SIM Technology Works

🔹 iPhone 13 & Newer – Supports two active eSIMs or one nano-SIM + one eSIM

🔹 iPhone 12 / 11 / XS / XR Series – Supports one nano-SIM + one eSIM (but only one eSIM active at a time)

🔹 Samsung Galaxy, Google Pixel, & Other Android Devices – Most support at least one active eSIM while keeping a physical SIM connected. Some models, like Google Pixel 7 and newer, allow two active eSIMs simultaneously

Check your manufacturer’s website to confirm your device’s Dual SIM capabilities before switching to encryptSIM.

Keep Your Primary Number for Calls & Texts

Since encryptSIM is data-only, your original SIM remains active for:

Receiving calls & SMS on your primary number

Using two-factor authentication (2FA) for banking & logins

Keeping access to traditional phone services while encryptSIM handles your data

Important Note: If your primary SIM is roaming internationally, your carrier may charge for incoming calls and texts. We recommend checking with your carrier to avoid unexpected fees.
