Where these estimates come from

Planning examples, not guaranteed totals. We use 1 GB = 1,000 MB, round down complete files and minutes, and exclude overhead, retries and background traffic.

  1. 5 MB is Verizon’s high-resolution photo example. Your files can be smaller after compression or much larger as originals or RAW. Check the actual file size on your phone. Verizon ↗
  2. 63 MB models a 1-minute H.264 Full HD export at 24–30 fps using YouTube’s recommended video and stereo audio bitrates. It is not a universal camera-file size or the cost of watching a clip. YouTube ↗
  3. Viewing examples use Netflix’s published rates: up to 0.7 GB/hr at Medium and up to 3 GB/hr in HD. Other apps and quality settings can differ; these are not YouTube playback rates. Netflix ↗
  4. The call example uses Zoom’s 1:1 720p bandwidth: 1.2 Mbps up and 1.2 Mbps down, together about 1.08 GB/hr. Group calls and higher resolutions can use more. Zoom ↗

How to install an eSIM in Croatia

Your first eSIM? Here is what to open and what to tap.

Check the exact model, regional variant and system version. If Add eSIM or EID is missing, contact support before buying. A brand name alone does not confirm compatibility.

On iOS 26, a Turn On Travel eSIM notification may appear after arrival. Choose the travel line for data and check whether you also want to keep your home line active. If no notification appears, use the manual steps below.

Check when your package starts: at payment, installation or first connection. If it starts on installation, install nearer your trip. Installing later does not postpone a package that started at payment.

These screens show settings on the models named below. Your operator and eSIM labels will differ. Screens retain the source language; each caption translates and identifies the control to use. Tap any image for a closer look.

Before your trip · install the eSIM

Use a stable Wi-Fi connection or hotspot. Your exact phone model must support eSIM and be unlocked for other operators.

  1. 01

    Open your eSIM installation

    Connect the phone you will use for your eSIM to Wi-Fi. Choose one of the two options below. If this eSIM is already installed, skip to choosing the line for mobile data.

    The app or email on this phone

    In the Letisim app, open My eSIMs, choose your purchased eSIM and tap Install. On the preparation screen, tap Copy name and install.

    Or open your eSIM email on this same phone and tap Install eSIM. If the link opens your order page first, use the installation button shown there.

    A QR code on another screen

    Open your eSIM’s QR code from the email or order on a computer, tablet or another phone. Point the camera of the phone you are installing the eSIM on at the code, then tap the installation prompt.

    Both options lead to the phone’s system setup. Continue with step 2.

    The button or camera did not open setup?

    You can add the eSIM by scanning its QR code in Settings. Follow the path below, choose the QR scanner and use the code for your own purchase. If the QR is on this same phone, see the options without a second screen below the guide.

    iPhone: Settings → Mobile Service / Cellular → Add eSIM → Use QR Code → Scan QR Code → Continue

    Google Pixel / Android: Settings → Network and Internet → SIMs → Add SIM → Set up an eSIM → scan your QR → Set up

    Samsung: Settings → Connections → SIM manager → Add eSIM → Scan QR code → Add → Next

    Give the new line a clear name

    For example, “Letisim Croatia”, so you can distinguish it from your home SIM. This is a label on your phone; it does not change the number or plan.

    iPhone: Settings → Cellular / Mobile Service → new eSIM → Cellular Plan Label → Custom

    Google Pixel / Android: Settings → Network & internet → SIMs → new eSIM → Edit name

    Samsung: Settings → Connections → SIM manager → new eSIM → Name

    Huawei: SIM management → SIM 2 → your eSIM → Card name. You can keep the existing label if no rename option is shown.

    Honor: SIM management → SIM 2 → eSIM name. Rename it if your MagicOS version offers this option.

    Xiaomi / Redmi: Manage eSIM → your plan → Change nickname, if available.

    Motorola: Open the new eSIM in SIM settings and use the edit-name option if available.

    OPPO: Open the installed profile in eSIM settings and change its label if your ColorOS version allows it.

    OnePlus: Open the installed eSIM and edit its name if the option is available.

04 / Operators

Mobile operators in Croatia

Compare network coverage separately from speed. A national result does not predict reception inside your hotel or along a mountain road.

HAKOM’s coverage maps currently list three national mobile network operators: A1 Hrvatska, Hrvatski Telekom and Telemach Hrvatska. Coverage maps are useful for planning, but they are still maps, so travellers should verify the exact address or route they care about.

A1 Hrvatska

Use the operator’s interactive map to check the hotel, apartment or route you care about before you buy. It is a planning tool, not a guarantee of identical signal in every street, building or ferry crossing. [1] [4]

Check coverage ↗

Hrvatski Telekom

The public coverage map helps you check mobile signal and internet availability by address. That is practical for city stays and road trips, but the real result still depends on congestion, the device and the exact spot where you use the phone. [1] [6]

Check coverage ↗

Telemach Hrvatska

Use the public coverage page to compare your accommodation, road or island itinerary rather than relying on a broad destination label. Coverage can change between town centres, roads and harbour areas. [1] [5]

Coverage Experience is a score, not a percentage of territory. These dated averages are not promised speeds for your connection.

The network in your chosen package is what matters. This country comparison does not mean every plan includes every operator. 5G depends on the package, phone and local coverage.

05 / Coverage

Coverage across Croatia

Check the addresses and roads you will actually use. Save maps and booking details before leaving Wi-Fi.

🇭🇷 Croatia
  1. Zagreb
  2. Split and the central Dalmatian coast
  3. Island routes: Brač, Hvar and Cres
  4. Motorway corridors and coastal drives

Zagreb

For a city stay, check the exact address around your hotel, apartment and main transit stops before you arrive. Zagreb is a practical place to use an eSIM for maps, ride-hailing, messages and live traffic updates. [1] [6] [7] [10]

Split and the central Dalmatian coast

Split works well as a base for city stays, the harbour and coast-hopping day trips. If your route includes ferries, keep the sailing app ready and download offline maps before boarding. [1] [8] [9] [11] [12]

Island routes: Brač, Hvar and Cres

On island routes, coverage can change between the town centre, the ferry approach and quieter coastal stretches. Check the operator map for your accommodation and keep ferry and traffic apps ready for delays or route changes. [1] [4] [5] [9] [10] [11]

Motorway corridors and coastal drives

For self-driving trips, check the route in the operator map and pair the eSIM with offline maps. That helps when you move between towns, tunnels, toll roads and ferry terminals. [1] [6] [10] [12]

Croatia · eSIM

What to know before you choose

Croatia’s regulator currently lists three national mobile network operators: A1 Hrvatska, Hrvatski Telekom and Telemach Hrvatska. Their coverage maps are useful for planning, but they are still maps, so the exact result depends on the address, route, building and network load where you actually use the phone.

For a traveller, the most practical comparison is not a broad best-network label but a check of the exact hotel, apartment, ferry terminal or road you will use. Zagreb is straightforward for urban data use, Split is a practical base for coast and island travel, and the island routes around Brač, Hvar and Cres are where ferry timing and offline maps become especially useful.

Useful apps and travel tools

Croatia Traffic Info – HAK ↗

Official Croatian Automobile Club app with traffic conditions, border crossings, ferry updates, webcams, fuel prices and road help. Useful for drivers, airport pickups and island crossings. [10]

mJadrolinija ↗

Official Jadrolinija app for checking sailing schedules and buying tickets for Adriatic routes. Especially useful when your trip includes Split, island hops or return legs by sea. [9] [11]

Google Maps ↗

Offline maps can be downloaded in advance for navigation when mobile data is weak or you want to save traffic on a trip. [12]

Before you buy

Ferries matter on island itineraries

Croatia’s coastal trips often mix roads with ferries, especially when you are moving to or from islands. Checking sailing times and ticket rules before departure helps you avoid last-minute changes at the terminal. [9] [11] [10]

City centres, airports and harbours are the easiest places to start

Tourist city pages and transport apps are most useful right after arrival, when you need navigation, a ride, a ferry or a traffic update. Zagreb and Split are especially practical starting points for checking local routes and service details. [7] [8] [10] [11]

Check coverage by address, not by country label

Regulator and operator maps in Croatia are available for planning, but the useful check is the exact hotel, apartment, road or ferry point you will use. That is the most reliable way to compare plans for a trip. [1] [4] [5] [6]

06 / FAQ

Questions about eSIM in Croatia

Which mobile networks can I expect in Croatia?

HAKOM’s current coverage maps list three national mobile operators: A1 Hrvatska, Hrvatski Telekom and Telemach Hrvatska. For travel planning, the useful step is to check the exact address or route you care about, because the map is only an indicator of likely service conditions. That matters most for hotels, apartments, roads, ferries and harbour areas. [1] [4] [5] [6]

Should I choose an eSIM mainly for Zagreb, Split or the islands?

If your trip is mostly urban, any of the national networks can be checked against the hotel or apartment address before you buy. If you are combining Split with island ferries, it is worth pairing the eSIM with offline maps and a ferry app so you still have navigation and timetable access when you board or transfer. [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12]

Do I need a separate app for ferries and road travel?

It helps. The HAK app gives traffic conditions, border-crossing information, ferry updates and webcams, while mJadrolinija is useful for sailing schedules and tickets. Together they cover the most common trip changes that affect coastal and island itineraries. [9] [10] [11]

Can I rely on coverage maps alone when I choose a plan?

Use them as a planning tool, not as a promise. HAKOM says the operator maps are informational and can differ from actual user experience because of location and network load. That is why it is smarter to check the exact place you will sleep, drive or catch a ferry from. [1] [3] [4] [5] [6]

What should I prepare before arriving in Croatia?

Download your eSIM before the trip if your provider allows it, save offline maps, and keep your ferry or traffic app ready. That gives you a backup for navigation and route changes even before you get a local connection at the airport, hotel or harbour. [9] [10] [11] [12]
