iPhone XR dual sim

I bought a dual-sim i-phone XR for a hard SIM card and e-Sim, the former for France and the latter for the UK. I managed to make the e-sim going for the Uk phone number, but when I inserted the French SIM card I couldn’t make it work. My previous dual sim android phone indicated both phone lines in SETTINGS and when I made a call I was given the choice which sim to use. No such option with the XR. What did I wrong?

To use two different carriers, your iPhone must be unlocked. Otherwise, both plans must be from the same carrier. If a CDMA carrier provides your first SIM, your second SIM won't support CDMA. Contact your carrier for more information. 


If you have an enterprise or corporate cellular service plan, check with your company administrator to see if they support this feature.
