- in the Megafon application Personal account” (for iOS, Android).

- in the Yota application (for iOS, Android).
Methods for iPhone

- Home menu – “Phone” – “Contacts” (top);
- In iTunes: “Devices” – “Summary” – “Phone Number”.
Method for iPad (with 3G/4G)
- “Settings” – “Cellular data number”.
Method for Android
- “Settings” – “About phone” – “Status” – “SIM status” – “My phone number”.
If you have an Android shell installed, the names of the items may differ.
It happens that the number is not shown. This happens when you reissued or changed the SIM card at the operator's salon.
Employees copy from old map for new encryption keys and other important information. But they forget to fill out the “Your number” cell.
Messengers
- WhatsApp: click on the three dots in the upper right corner - “Settings” - tap your nickname. The number is the very last line.
- Viber: click “More” (button in the lower right corner). The number will be displayed under your avatar and nickname.
- Telegram: main menu (three bars in the upper left corner). The number will be visible at the top.
Why else is it important to know your number?
When you buy a beautiful number from your hands, a completely different value may be recorded in the SIM card memory. It is stored in the “Own number” memory cell.
If the scammer has changed “My number,” then a beautiful number will then be displayed in the smartphone settings. And on the network - a real one, issued by the operator.
Calling another number or checking using the methods offered by the operator will help you not to be disappointed in your purchase.
And in general, buying numbers from your hands is unsafe. If you then link such a number to bank card, the real owner of the number will be able to get a duplicate SIM card and leave you without money.
How to change the number directly on the SIM card
Find an old push-button Siemens A50 or its “colleagues”, insert a SIM card into it, find “Your number” in contacts and write there everything you like, then save. You don’t even have to follow the format.
Another option is an ancient smartphone with Android 4.1 and lower.
- Go to “Settings” – “Manage SIM cards” and disable the desired card (or switch to airplane mode).
- Click on the name of the SIM card and go to the “SIM card information” section.
- Select “Enter phone number” and enter the desired number.
The same thing works in some Android skins (for example, MIUI).
But in any case, your online number will not change. Otherwise everyone would wear nice numbers.
