Title: E-SIM can protect your iPhone against theft
description: It turns out that only a few smartphones currently support e-SIM or embedded SIM cards. We found out that iOS 15 supports Find My iPhone even when the device is turned off.
If you have an iPhone that supports iOS 15, you can turn on Find My iPhone when your device is turned off. This makes sure that even if someone steals and calls and turns it off, you'll still be able to track your device with iCloud.
This is a fantastic solution, especially nowadays where a lot is happening. What does a thief usually do after a phone is stolen? He can turn off the device, and if he's a little clever, he can even take out the SIM card. This means that if you have an e-SIM on your iPhone with Find My iPhone enabled, you will be able to track the device, at least until the battery runs out. As it is almost impossible to reset / format an iPhone without knowing your Apple ID credentials. As such, it becomes almost impossible to remove your iPhone from the radar as the device will continue to share your location even when it is turned off.
It is worth adding that switching to e-SIM has become much easier than some time ago. Just a few years ago, you had to visit a store to convert a physical SIM to an e-SIM. We remind you that most iPhones, starting with the iPhone XR, support two SIM cards with an e-SIM card slot and a nano-SIM card slot. Note that if you own iPhone 13 series smartphones, you can actually use two e-SIM cards at the same time. This is a great solution that is worth using!
