Can You Hotspot with an eSIM? (Yes – Full Details)

Short answer: Yes.

Every Ugoroam plan includes hotspot sharing in 160+ countries.

Here’s exactly how it works.

Who opens the hotspot? Your phone (the one with the Ugoroam eSIM installed) turns on hotspot. The other devices only need to connect to Wi-Fi — they do not need eSIM support at all.

Real-world details

1. Your phone must
   • Support eSIM (iPhone XS and later, Samsung S20 and later, Pixel 3 and later, most modern unlocked Androids)
   • Have the Ugoroam eSIM activated and set as the data line
   • Have Data Roaming turned ON
2. Other devices (laptop, tablet, second phone, Switch, etc.)
   • Just connect to your hotspot password like any normal Wi-Fi
   • No eSIM required on their side
3. Speed and data
   • Everyone gets the same speed your phone receives (full 4G/5G)
   • All data counts toward your Ugoroam plan
   • After daily high-speed quota → unlimited 2G for everyone on the hotspot
4. Battery note Hotspot uses more battery. Carry a power bank for long sessions.

That’s it. No hidden limits. No extra fees. No “one device only” restrictions.
