Helium Mobile offers multiple SIM options so you can choose the one that works best for your device. Once you sign up and log into your Helium Mobile account, you'll be ready to choose your SIM!
We recommend running the latest OS on your device. The minimum supported versions are iOS 14 and Android 11.
Your device must also be unlocked before you can activate a SIM.
