Is it possible to have more than two telephone lines on the iphone 14? I understand there are only 2 esims, but I thought I read somewhere that they can support more telephone lines, but only 2 can be active at any time. I would like to have two lines that I would use on a day-to-day basis, but if I travel to Europe, I'd like to be able to add an additional line to use there.

From my previous reply, see this excerpt from the Apple Support article cited:
You can install eight or more eSIMs on an iPhone and use two phone numbers at the same time.
As that states, you can install eight or more eSIMS on the phone but only use 2 at the same time.
After you have added more than 2 you can switch among them as needed for which ones you want active.
The following doesn't discuss having more than 2 (as only 2 can be active) but does have other information that may be of interest: Use eSIM while traveling internationally with your iPhone - Apple Support

See the following excerpt from an Apple Support article for information about multiple eSIMs. From About eSIM on iPhone - Apple Support

Thank you for the prompt reply. I have read those sections of the Apple instructions; however, I must be missing something. I still cannot see where it permits 3 lines on the iPhone with only 2 active. Is it necessary to remove one, and that add it back on when you want to use it.
Thank you very much. You have been extremely helpful.
