It suits a standard mix of messages, social media, music and video for the whole stay. - **A week-long business trip:** Choose 3 GB for 15 days. It suits messages, email and maps, with WhatsApp for team chats. Most plans can be topped up, so you can add more data if your trip runs longer than planned. Read how to [top up your eSIM](/help/top-up-esim). ## Will my eSIM have signal in Guinea? Orange is the network your eSIM joins in Guinea, and it runs on 4G. Your phone picks Orange by itself, so there's nothing to choose or switch on. One network, one less thing to think about. Your data reaches the internet through the United States, a normal setup for travel eSIMs. Read the [IP address help page](/help/ip-address-another-country) for more. Daily plans slow to 512 Kbps once you've used the day's allowance, so pick a fixed plan if you'll stream a lot. Messages in WhatsApp use your eSIM data, so a few photos can use more than you expect. ## Using your phone in Guinea: arriving and staying in touch - **Arriving:** Install your eSIM at home on Wi-Fi before you fly. Land at Conakry Gbessia (CKY), switch it on, and make sure [data roaming](/help/turn-on-data-roaming) is on for the eSIM line. - **Network:** Orange is the network here, on 4G. Most plans can be topped up, so you can add more data mid-trip without buying a new eSIM. - **How much data:** Standard use, such as maps, messages, social media and some video, is about 0.7 GB a day. Heavy use, with streaming and hotspot, is about 1.8 GB a day. - **Staying in touch:** Message friends and family on [WhatsApp](/help/keep-whatsapp-and-home-number). Your home number stays on for calls and texts, so people back home can still reach you the usual way. - **After your allowance:** On daily plans, speeds drop to 512 Kbps once your daily allowance is used up, so check it before a long day of maps and messages. ## Questions ### How much is an eSIM for Guinea?

The plan table on this page shows which ones. ### Why does my IP address show another country? Guinea plans route your data through United States, a normal setup for travel eSIMs. Websites and apps may show that country's content; your speed and coverage in Guinea are not affected. ### Does it come with a phone number? Every eSIMology plan is data only. Keep your own SIM switched on for calls and texts, and use WhatsApp, FaceTime or any calling app over your eSIM's data. ### What if my plans change?

No, 5G isn't available on this eSIM in Guinea. Your connection runs over 4G on the Orange network, which is what you'll use for maps, messages, photos and the odd video. Look for 4G on your signal bars to confirm you're connected. ### Does WhatsApp work on an eSIM in Guinea? Yes. WhatsApp is the messaging app to use in Guinea, and your eSIM's data carries your chats, photos and voice notes.

Once you use up your daily allowance, your data drops to a much slower speed. The daily allowances are 500 MB, 1 GB and 2 GB a day, so pick the one that matches your heaviest day, not your lightest. ### Does hotspot use a lot of data in Guinea? Yes. Hotspot counts as heavy use in Guinea, at about 1.8 GB a day, so sharing your phone with a laptop can add up quickly. Switch it off when you aren't using it, so your daily allowance lasts.
