When Apple unveiled three new iPhone models back in September, the company confirmed rumors that said the new handsets would come with dual-SIM support. However, unlike other devices that support two physical SIMs, the iPhone XS and iPhone XR only have room for a single SIM inside. The second SIM is a virtual SIM or eSIM, which can be configured in the phone’s settings. But eSIM functionality requires support from wireless carriers and the main US carriers have taken their time rolling out the new feature. T-Mobile is one of the Big Four that has yet to roll out eSIM support for the new iPhones, but it’s working on a standalone app that would bring eSIM support to iPhone.
