Just deleted this app today. Eight is not viable, because they do not have a list of compatible phones except for eSIM ones. Will blame the phone when things don't work, including all the Iphones that are using physical SIM, They make no difference whether VoLTE is supported by your phone or not.

Because the likelyhood of a phone not working with physical sim is extremely low, that's why no list

Anyone using eight with the new iPad mini 7th gen?
Only eSIM available on the new iPad mini but their websai doesn’t state the 7th gen in their list

IPad Mini 6 has a SIM slot and I also have a couple of eSIM in there, though not Eight. The Mini 7 doesn't have physical SIM slot? :oops:

decided to try out eight for comparison by getting the $8 data only e-sim last night.

coverage is definitely much better...

Just renewed my eight after the 88 days trial. Seems like there's a grace period from 12am to 6am after expiry, can still access data and make calls until they send you SMS that it's expired at 6.05am.

Yup. This morning can't use data or sms. Until I renew it, currently suspended.
