iPhone XR Dual SIM, put only one in airplane mode?

[user1234]

Hi!

I'm considering adding a second sim but I rarely use that number and world like it not to be active most of the time.

It's there a quick way to either put one of them in airplane mode, or turn it on and off? Apples documentation fell short on this so my hope is to you guys.

You can turn it on and off as needed.

Nice!

I assume it's in the settings app and can't be done from control center?

Unfortunately it has to be turned off in settings.

That works. I have now ordered an eSIM for my secondary number. Funnily enough they were "out of eSIMs" so it may take a while. I don't get why I can't just get the details through their customer portal but sure.

Thanks for your help!
