Can I use a VPN?

Yes, a VPN runs over kimsim data like any connection. If data isn't working, switch the VPN off first.

Yes. A VPN works over kimsim data like it does over Wi-Fi.

When something's wrong

A VPN can slow things down, and it can make it look like data isn't working when the VPN itself is stuck. When you're troubleshooting:

  1. Turn the VPN off.
  2. Check data works without it.
  3. Then switch it back on.

Apps think you're somewhere else?

That can happen without a VPN too: many travel eSIMs send data through another country. Why.
