Had to buy another eSIM from a different provider for more $$.

It didn't work for me because the app limits usage to specified phone models. I tried to use it on an Infinix Smart 8 and it's not compatible, then on a Samsung A34 and still not compatible. I recommend expanding the list of models with access to eSIM so it can be more widely used

Bought an e-sim to use in Cuba but it doesn’t work. After connecring to a wifi to install it i get a message thaf the QR code i received ia not valid. The app also does not seem to work here. Be careful!

Writing this with review in Nov 2024, using GlobaleSIM on my iPhone. After successfully testing Gigsky I went with the cheapest price/GB. It worked well in the cities I visited: Baracoa, ImÃas, San Antonio, Guantánamo.
I noticed two differences, which indicate having both eSIMs improved my connectivity:
1. The phone shows 4G (GlobaleSIM) instead of LTE (Gigsky).
2. In one remote area with no GlobaleSIM connection I still had network with Gigsky.
In my case the payment via Paypal got stuck, but I assume this was a one-off. The GlobaleSIM support was super friendly and helpful during the extra week this took.

Writing this review in Nov 2024 using a GigSky esim on my iPhone. It has worked well in Guantánamo, ImÃas, and right now in Baracoa. After changing my location I often have to enable/disable Flight Mode to get a working internet connection (LTE symbol). This might be a quirk of the cuban cellular network.

Worst eSim we've ever used and we have travelled a lot and used many different eSims around the world. This was a complete waste of money. Even thought we seemed to be connected to LTE most of the time we couldn't actually download anything, send messages, or surf the web at all.
We couldn't even download the mandatory update to the GigSky app because the connection didn't actually work.
There are more than 30 travel eSIM brands and more than 250 prepaid data plans available for use in Cuba, offering a wide variety of options that make it easy for travelers to find an eSIM that fits their needs.
Yesim provides unlimited data eSIM plans for Cuba, valid for 1 to 7 days and priced between $53.84 and $173.50. The plans allow tethering but may be subject to speed throttling, and connectivity is offered on 3G and LTE networks.
Cuba does not have Mobile Virtual Network Operators (MVNOs); therefore, all mobile services are provided directly by ETECSA.
Travel eSIM plans that include a phone number and SMS support are available for Cuba from at least two providers listed in the dataset. The providers are GlobaleSIM and Roamify. GlobaleSIM offers a variety of plans ranging from 1 GB to 15 GB, with validity periods between 7 days and 30 days and prices starting at $14.00 USD for the 1‑GB, 7‑day package and reaching $100.00 USD for the 15‑GB, 30‑day package. The telephony configuration for all GlobaleSIM plans uses the dialing code +1, which is the same code used for Cuba, therefore the phone numbers are local to Cuba and support inbound and outbound voice calls and inbound SMS. Roamify offers a 1‑GB plan with 10 outbound calls and 50 outbound SMS, a validity of 30 days and a price of $30.00 USD. Roamify’s plans use the dialing code +33, providing a foreign phone number, but still support inbound and outbound voice and inbound and outbound SMS. Travelers can choose a plan that fits their data needs and phone number preferences, whether they require a local or a foreign number.
