How can we help? 👋

What on earth is the iOS buddy helper?

The iOS Buddy Helper is Apple’s built-in setup wizard that appears when you install a new eSIM.

It helps you quickly decide:

  • Which SIM to use for data
  • Which phone line (i.e. which SIM or eSIM) should handle calls and texts
  • What to name your new eSIM (we suggest “eSIM Copilot”)

It only takes a few taps, and once it’s done, your iPhone knows exactly how to use your new plan — no extra setup needed.
