How to Check Data Usage on Your Phone While Using eSIM

blog

One of the most essential aspects of managing your travel connectivity is monitoring your data usage. Whether you’re on a Regular plan with limited data or want to avoid running out mid-trip, checking your usage is quick and easy — and works the same way whether you’re using a physical SIM or an eSIM.

 

Managing your data is effortless with Roamvy, especially when using a USA travel eSIM for your trip to North America.

 

Here’s how to do it on the most popular devices — and directly in the Roamvy app:

 

On iPhone (iOS)

  • Go to Settings
  • Tap Cellular / Mobile Data
  • Select your Roamvy eSIM line if you’re using dual SIM
  • Scroll down to see your current data usage

👉 Tip: Tap Reset Statistics at the start of your trip so you can track usage for that journey only.

 

On Android (Samsung, Google Pixel, etc.)

  • Go to Settings
  • Tap Connections or Network & Internet
  • Select Data Usage
  • Choose your Roamvy eSIM profile to view usage

👉 Some Android phones let you set a data limit or warning, so you’ll get an alert when you’re close to reaching your cap.

 

On the Roamvy App

Roamvy makes it even easier to stay on top of your data:

  • Open the Roamvy app
  • Go to My eSIMs > View Plans
  • A speedometer-style meter shows your remaining data at a glance

You’ll also receive automatic notifications when you reach:

  • 50% usage
  • 80% usage
  • 100% usage

And if your data runs out, Roamvy makes it simple to add more:

  • Go to My eSIMs > View Plans
  • Tap Top Up
  • Choose from the available top-up options for your plan.
     

Why Monitoring Data Matters

  • Stay in control: Avoid surprises and manage your plan effectively
  • Optimize usage: Turn off background apps or downloads if you’re using more than expected
  • Choose the right plan next time: Understanding your habits helps you pick between Regular, Unlimited, or Build-Your-Own Roamvy plans

FAQs

Does data tracking work differently on eSIMs versus SIMs?
No. The phone tracks data usage by line, allowing you to see exactly how much your Roamvy eSIM is being used.

 

What if I run out of data during the trip?
No problem — go to My eSIMs > View Plans > Top Up in the Roamvy app and choose from the available options.

 

Can I set alerts for my data usage?
Yes. Both iOS and Android allow manual alerts, and Roamvy automatically notifies you at 50%, 80%, and 100%.
