Without Apple ID, an “apple” user won’t get access to App Store, identity identification, cloud storage and other proprietary functions. The process of creating an Apple profile can’t be bypassed without a valid phone number to which a confirmation code arrives. Many users have difficulties with this procedure: an appropriate number is not always at hand.
Receive SMS from Apple ID online
Any user needs identification through a number in the Apple system, however it’s not convenient for everyone to use own mobile for this purpose. Therefore, there is another way to get registered in Apple ID-to receive SMS online
.
Receive SMS online is a service which is provided by the SMS verification service. Use this service in order not to utilize your personal number during Apple ID registration process. It works like this: client goes to the website of service to receive SMS, and automatically gets a number according to the specified parameters. And SMS arrives to that number in the future, but not to the user’s one.
Such numbers are located in the cloud and are available for remote use. This means that client doesn’t need to go to telecom store to purchase a new SIM card. But that’s not all yet.
The service to receive SMS is paid, but compared to purchase of a full-fledged SIM card costs ten times cheaper. For example, cost of numbers for Apple ID starts from 0,05$, which is comparable to buying cheap gum.
Besides, an unlimited quantity of virtual numbers are available to SMS receiving service client. That’s why, there is no need to worry if you accidentally lost access to the old account: just create a new one.
Buy virtual numbers for SMS from Apple ID
There is nothing complicated in buying a phone number for Apple ID on the service to receive SMS. This is a simple procedure, for which a computer or a phone with Internet access is enough: personal data or a trip to the telecom store are not required.
Use the detailed instruction which will help you to choose virtual number properly and use it for Apple ID registration.
- Go to the website of service to receive SMS
and get registered using Email.
- Top up the balance based on how many numbers it’s required to purchase. Pay attention that besides Apple, numbers for many other services are available on the website.
- The main menu is located on the left. Select country and operator to which number will belong. On these parameters depend the price and number issue time (on average 5-10 minutes).
- After selecting number parameters, specify the service from which it’s necessary to receive SMS and click “Buy”. In our case it’s “apple”. The list of services is also located on the left, just scroll the page down.
- A window with data about the virtual number will automatically appear. We are interested in number digits themselves, which need to be copied and pasted into the Apple ID registration field.
- Further, go back to the window with number on the website to receive SMS and wait for the code to arrive which will help to complete registration.
This completes the procedure of purchasing and using a virtual number. The instruction itself is relevant for all services which are available on the website. Also pay attention that temporary number is issued for a limited time: a few minutes, since this is enough to receive SMS. In case user doesn’t manage to receive the code during this period, money for the number will be returned to the user’s balance.
