Good to know in United States
Facts from official sources and the press, each with the date we last checked it.
Check coverage maps before a road trip
Our US plans list AT&T and Verizon, as shown in the network table. Both operators publish coverage maps. Verizon says its map shows approximate outdoor coverage, that its 4G LTE network reaches more than 99% of the US population, and that its fastest 5G, called Ultra Wideband, needs a 5G phone inside that coverage area.
Little or no signal in many national parks
The National Park Service calls cellular service in Yellowstone extremely limited: towers cover most developed areas and the North and West entrances, and in summer the number of users can overwhelm the network. Free public Wi-Fi is available at the Albright, Old Faithful and West Yellowstone visitor centers. Download maps and tickets before you drive into a park.

New York subway: signal between stations is still patchy
Mobile coverage in New York’s subway tunnels is still being built. In its April 2026 committee papers, the MTA said AT&T service was active on completed sections, such as the 4 and 5 lines between Borough Hall and Fulton Street and the G line between Court Square and Hoyt–Schermerhorn, while other carriers had yet to join. Elsewhere, expect to lose signal between stations.

911 works without a US number, with limits
In the US, the emergency number is 911. King County’s 911 office says a mobile phone with no active service can still call 911 as long as it has battery, but the 911 center receives limited information and cannot call back if the call drops. A Voyafi eSIM is data-only with no US number, so give your location first and stay on the line.

United States eSIM: common questions
- How much does an eSIM for United States cost?
- Plans for United States start at $2.41 for 1 GB valid for 1 day. The largest gives you 100 GB for 10 days at $150.29. Prices are in US dollars and are the final amount you pay.
- Which mobile networks does the United States eSIM use?
- In United States the plans run on Verizon and AT&T. Your phone connects to whichever is available where you are.
- Does the United States eSIM support 5G?
- Yes. 5G is listed for Verizon and AT&T. You get it where the local network has 5G coverage and your iPhone supports 5G; elsewhere the eSIM uses the fastest network available.
- Can I use the same eSIM in other countries?
- The plans on this page work in United States only. If your trip continues, the North America plan covers United States and 2 other countries on one eSIM, from $4.02.
- When does my United States plan start?
- When the eSIM first connects to a network in United States, not when you buy it — so you can install it at home before you travel.
- Does the United States eSIM give me a local phone number?
- No. These plans are data-only: mobile internet, not a local phone number, and no calls or SMS. Your usual number stays on your iPhone.
- How do I buy a United States eSIM?
- On this website or in the Voyafi app: pick United States, choose a plan and pay once. You confirm your phone supports eSIM before you pay, then install the plan with one tap.
- Will my eSIM work in US national parks such as the Grand Canyon?
- Often only in places. The National Park Service says cellular service and Wi-Fi are limited within Grand Canyon National Park. It recommends downloading the free NPS app and saving the park for offline use before you arrive; the app can then show your location on the map even without cellular service.
- Does a Voyafi eSIM use 5G in the United States?
- Our US plans list 5G for both AT&T and Verizon; the network table on this page shows the current details. You need a 5G-capable phone, and speed depends on where you are: Verizon, for example, says its fastest 5G, Ultra Wideband, requires a 5G phone inside that coverage area, and that its map shows approximate outdoor coverage.
