Can I use WhatsApp, Messenger and maps with eSIM?

Yes - all your regular apps work exactly as they do on any other mobile data connection. Your MondoMate eSIM provides standard mobile internet, so there are no app restrictions.
Calling and messaging while abroad
MondoMate eSIM plans are data-only - they don't include a phone number. This means:
- Internet calls (WhatsApp, FaceTime, Zoom, Teams) work fully over your MondoMate data
- Traditional phone calls and SMS go through your regular SIM (keep it active for calls)
- You can receive your usual number calls and SMS while using MondoMate for data
Before your trip, make sure WhatsApp and other apps are fully updated and logged in. Some apps require your phone number for first-time login - do this over Wi-Fi at home.
