I use Airalo eSIMs for data and yet get my messaged authentication factors to come into my WiFi-calling-enabled TMobile number and Google Voice numbers over WiFi on my iPhones.

I found out on this trip that the T-Mobile DIGITS app no longer allows for short code SMS messages "for security reasons". Since my S20FE doesn't have eSIM, I have to switch SIM cards whenever I need a 2FA text. Pretty annoying. Looking forward to upgrading to a phone with eSIM capabilities; the Swedish mobile provider I'm using for cheap data doesn't offer eSIM.
