Safaricom's My OneApp teardown reveals exciting new features for eSIM requests. The latest update hints at in-app activation, email delivery, and clear pricing details—making the process simpler than the current MySafaricom flow. Here's what you need to know about this improvement and how it benefits you.
What Is the Safaricom My OneApp eSIM Update?
The My OneApp teardown shows Safaricom is working on a smoother eSIM experience. Instead of the current multi-step process in MySafaricom, the new update may allow you to:
- Activate eSIM directly in the app – No need to visit a store or call customer care.
- Receive eSIM details via email – Quick and convenient delivery.
- See pricing upfront – Know the cost before you proceed.
This change is part of Safaricom's effort to make eSIM adoption easier for Kenyan users.
How Does This Compare to the Current MySafaricom Flow?
Right now, getting an eSIM through MySafaricom involves:
- Requesting an eSIM via the app or USSD.
- Waiting for a QR code or manual setup.
- Sometimes visiting a Safaricom shop for verification.
The My OneApp update aims to cut these steps. With in-app activation, you can complete everything from your phone. Email delivery also means you won't lose the eSIM details easily.
Key Benefits of the New eSIM Feature
- Faster setup – Activate in minutes.
- No physical visit – Save time and travel costs.
- Clear pricing – Avoid hidden fees.
- Better security – Email delivery reduces risk of misplacement.
What Does This Mean for Safaricom Users?
If you're a Safaricom customer looking to switch to eSIM, this update is great news. It simplifies the process and makes it more accessible. Whether you're using an iPhone, Samsung, or other eSIM-compatible device, you'll likely find it easier to get connected.
For now, the feature is still in development. But based on the teardown, it should roll out soon. Keep your My OneApp updated to get early access.
Tips for a Smooth eSIM Experience
- Ensure your phone supports eSIM (check your device settings).
- Back up your current SIM details before switching.
- Use a stable internet connection during activation.
- Keep an eye on your email for the eSIM QR code.
Once live, this update will make eSIM requests as easy as ordering a new line. Stay tuned for the official launch.
