Solved Physical to esim conversion

[Griff500]

Has anybody succeeded in convering a Physical sim to esim on Android 14? This was a much publicised feature pre-launch, but having just received my Pixel 8 Pro, I cannot find an option anywhere in settings to do the conversion.

I converted a physical sim to esim on a S21U back on Android 12. Granted, it was a Samsung phone. In Settings, search for SIM Manager (or whatever they call it on Pixel) and poke around in there. Easily done.

Go to settings>network and Internet>sims>add a sim
Some carriers require you to call or go into store to set-up

Been there, no such options!

As far as I'm aware, you can't just rip any SIM and turn it into an eSIM. It has to be supported by the network operator.

so glad I included appropriate caveats/qualifiers in my post above

Nope. "Add a sim" enables you to scan a QR code from your provider only, no option to convert a physical sim. Samsung has had this feature for years. Despite rumours in advance of launch, it appears as if Google still don't offer this option.
