A unified library merging features from multiple SIM card management libraries:
๐ Why use this library?
โ
Unified APIs for eSIM and SIM data management.
โ
Bug fixes and enhancements for improved stability.
โ
Simplified transition from previous libraries (requires some code adaptation).
๐ฆ Installation
Install the package using npm:
npm install react-native-sim-cards-manager
๐ Debugging
Android
To debug device logs during eSIM setup, use the following command:
adb logcat | grep "Euicc"
๐ Permissions
Android
- Minimum API Level: 22
- Add the following permission in
AndroidManifest.xmlforTelephonyManager:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE" />
For eSIM features:
- For regular apps, follow the instructions in the carrier privileges guide.
- For system apps, include the following permission:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EMBEDDED_SUBSCRIPTIONS" />
More details here.
iOS
- Minimum API Level: 12 (eSIM features)
- Requires eSIM entitlement. Learn more here.
โ ๏ธ Note: As of iOS 14.2, there is a known bug where an unknown result may be returned before completing eSIM setup. Details here.
๐ Usage
๐ฒ Retrieve SIM Cards
Fetch a list of SIM cards. The result may contain no elements (if no SIM cards are detected) or multiple entries.
๐ Method: getSimCards
Handles permission requests and accepts an optional _rationale_ parameter.
import SimCardsManagerModule from 'react-native-sim-cards-manager';
SimCardsManagerModule.getSimCards({
title: 'App Permission',
message: 'Custom message',
buttonNeutral: 'Not now',
buttonNegative: 'Not OK',
buttonPositive: 'OK',
})
.then((array: Array<any>) => {
// Handle results
})
.catch((error) => {
// Handle errors
});
๐ Method: getSimCardsNative
Used internally by getSimCards. Does not handle permissions.
import SimCardsManagerModule from 'react-native-sim-cards-manager';
SimCardsManagerModule.getSimCardsNative()
.then((array: Array<any>) => {
// Handle results
})
.catch((error) => {
// Handle errors
});

SimCardsManagerModule.isEsimSupported()
.then((isSupported: boolean) => {
// Handle result
})
.catch((error) => {
// Handle errors
});
โ๏ธ eSIM Setup
