History

Changelog.

Every public change to esimgomobile, newest first.

Entries are published in English.

Web

Site-wide search restored (root cause)

Site search (Ctrl+K and the search button) was dead on all 2,741 pages: the initializer ran before the search overlay markup was parsed, so it silently bound to nothing. Search init now waits for document readiness (initSearch), and the page injector keeps injected chrome inside <body>. Verified live with real queries on multiple pages.

Web

Free Wi-Fi finder tool launched

The free Wi-Fi finder (/tools/find-free-wifi/) went from a roadmap page to a live tool: enter a city and it geocodes it, then lists up to 20 real nearby Wi-Fi venues — name, category, address, distance — from OpenStreetMap data, cached for six hours. Verified live with Tokyo and Paris.

Web

Find My Plan quiz tool published

The AI plan quiz (/tools/find-my-plan/) is live and linked from the tools hub as the 31st tool: answer a few questions about your trip and the worker recommends a real plan from the published catalog (Atlas 5/20/50 GB/Unlimited plus travel packs), with prices stamped by the worker — never invented.

Web

Blank 404s fixed; 404 search repaired

Missing URLs returned a blank page with a genuine 404 status; they now serve the full branded 404 page. The search box on the 404 page works again — it was reading a retired index schema and threw on every keystroke. The German countries-hub headline no longer clips mid-word on phones.

Web

Language pill and search button re-docked

The language pill, search button, reading-progress bar and toasts were trapped inside the scroll-animation container, so on long pages they sat thousands of pixels below the viewport. They are now direct children of <body> and dock to the viewport everywhere.

Web

Waitlist bands legible again

A selector mismatch left the waitlist/CTA band text white on a light background (invisible) across 2,748 pages — the band now renders the intended dark photographic card with legible text. 163 pages with corrupted </body> tags (which rendered literal '</body>' text at the top) were repaired as well.

Web

Language pill added to coverage pages

/coverage/ and /coverage/topup/ were the only pages missing the language switcher pill that every other page has; the script include was added to both.

Web

Asset content types repaired

An unexpected deploy served every asset as application/octet-stream, causing browsers to download pages instead of rendering them. All assets were re-uploaded with correct content types and the site renders normally.

Web

Language hubs localized further

The es/fr/de/pt/ja home hubs now type the hero tagline rotator in their own language, and three headline strings that shipped in English ('An AI receptionist on your number.', 'API-first, down to the SIM.', 'Explore the API') are translated on all five hubs.

Web

Device compatibility database expanded

The compatibility checker's database grew from 32 to 62 match terms — Huawei P40/Mate 40, Sony Xperia 1 IV and 5 IV, Vivo X Pro, Nothing Phone 2/3, Fairphone 4/5, OnePlus 13/Open, iPhone 17/Air/SE, Galaxy S26, Pixel 10/Fold. Two false positives fixed: bare 'edge' no longer matches the Galaxy S7 Edge, and over-broad 'moto g' matching was removed.

Web

Seven new self-serve tools shipped

New free tools: installation guide, eSIM troubleshooter, resend activation QR, carrier-lock checker, data-balance estimator, roaming-status checker and public-IP checker — alongside the multi-country eSIM planner and roaming-cost calculator.

Web

Tool page quality fixes

Fifteen tool pages badged as working but shipped without a live widget now run real calculations; two dead cross-links fixed; mobile headline word-break and nav CTA clipping fixes across tool pages.

Web

Coverage pages dark-theme and nav fixes

The coverage hub and top-up page hero headlines were invisible behind a light legibility scrim — dark scrims now apply on dark-themed pages. The coverage nav overflow at desktop width was unified to the standard dropdown nav.

Web

195 country guides shipped

Every market got its own guide: install steps, device checks, local network notes and translated editions, all validated for SEO.

Web

30 connectivity tools launched

The tools hub opened with 30 web tools — device checks, data calculators, number formatting, APN helpers and more — each with its own page.

Web

40-article blog published

Forty long-form guides on eSIM setup, roaming costs, virtual numbers and AI call handling went live.

Web

Pricing page with AI-compare widget

The pricing page shipped with a copy-paste AI comparison prompt and five localized editions — prices stay marked 'Announced at launch'.

Web

Waitlist opened

The esimgomobile site went live in pre-launch mode: real product pages, honest launch gating on every transactional flow, and the waitlist.

Explainer

Changelog: the full picture

The short version: prepaid travel eSIMs across 195 destinations, installed by QR code in two minutes, managed from a dashboard, with an AI agent on call when you need a human-style answer fast.

The long version is the rest of this page — plans, mechanics, edge cases and honest trade-offs, written the way we'd explain it to a friend.

Everything on this page exists to answer one question well: how does esimgomobile fit into your trip? The sections below go deep so you never need a second tab.

Explainer

How it works, step by step

  1. Choose data that fits the trip
    • Short city break? 5 GB. Two weeks with maps and video calls? 20 GB. Working remotely or hotspotting? 50 GB or Unlimited.
    • Every plan shows exactly what you get — no asterisks.
  2. Install in two minutes
    • Buy, scan the QR code, done. The whole thing happens on your phone, wherever you are.
    • Install days before you fly or minutes before boarding — your call.
  3. Switch on and go
    • Enable the eSIM line in settings when you arrive. It connects to the fastest local partner network on its own.
    • Your home number keeps working for calls and texts on your physical SIM if you keep it active.

Explainer

Good to know

  • Check that your phone is carrier-unlocked before you buy any eSIM — locked phones can't add one.
  • Charge your phone before long travel days; weak signal areas drain batteries faster.
  • If a page won't load, toggle airplane mode for ten seconds — it forces a fresh network attach.
  • Download offline maps for your destination — they save data and work in dead zones.
  • Screenshot your hotel address and booking confirmations — you'll want them with no signal.
  • Save your eSIM QR code somewhere safe (email it to yourself) in case you switch phones mid-trip.

These are the details that separate a smooth trip from a stressful one — small, unglamorous, and worth more than any feature list.

Explainer

Why travelers switch

Roaming bills taught a generation to fear their phones abroad. The eSIM generation simply never learned that fear — data is prepaid, visible and finite.

The Tele Agent closes the remaining gap: a question at midnight in a foreign terminal gets an answer in seconds, not a support ticket.

And because everything is prepaid through Amazon Pay, the commercial relationship is simple: you pay for data, you get data, it ends when it ends.
