Numbers from countries where codes arrived

Why YouTube may refuse a free number

The number is shared, so someone may already have used it with YouTube.
YouTube can block VoIP numbers and numbers that many people have used.
Codes, including account recovery codes, can reach anyone who reads this number.

Didn't get the code?

Free numbers are shared, so a code can fail to arrive for reasons nobody here controls:

Someone else may already have used the number to sign up to YouTube, so it refuses the number.
YouTube can block VoIP numbers and numbers that many people have used, and every public number here is used by many people.
Some services only send codes to certain countries.

VoIP vs non-VoIP numbers

A VoIP number runs over the internet. It is cheap and quick to issue, and many apps reject it for verification. A non-VoIP number belongs to a mobile carrier and is tied to a SIM card. Apps accept it more often, but none of them promise to.

A private number is used by you alone, so nobody else can read your codes or reuse the number, and apps are less likely to refuse it.

Frequently asked questions

Why does YouTube ask me to verify my phone number?

YouTube asks for verification before it unlocks some features on a channel. The code is sent by Google.

How many channels can one number verify?

YouTube limits verifications per number per year, and public numbers reach the limit quickly. If a number is refused, try another.

What does YouTube unlock after phone verification?

Intermediate features on your channel, such as videos longer than 15 minutes, custom thumbnails and live streaming.

Is the verification code the same as a Gmail code?

Both come from your Google account, so this page and the Gmail page show the same Google codes.

Why didn't the YouTube code arrive?

YouTube may refuse a shared number or one it has seen before. Try a number from a country listed above, or a private number from $0.18.

Is it allowed to use a temp number for YouTube?

That depends on YouTube's own terms, which you should read. TemporaryNum does not help anyone get around an app's rules.
