The fact that you are reading this article, is an indication that you are aware of the fact that Google requires you input a phone number when registering a mail account under them. In past years, the inclusion of a phone number wasn’t compulsory, it recently became an obligation. However, there is a method you can apply, a method that lets you create a Gmail account, without including a phone number as one of the compulsory particulars. In this article, we explore a comprehensive tutorial on how to use a Gmail account without a phone number.

If you are an Android owner, your new Gmail account can be created through the “Settings” application. By so doing, you will be able to get it done without having to provide your phone number. To achieve this, you need to:

  3. Click “Accounts.”
  4. Choose “Add Account” way down on the list.
  5. Select Google from the list. And a Google screen will open.

  7. Enter your first and last name and tap “Next.”
  8. Include your date of birth and sex and click “Next.” once more.

  2. Head to the Create New Google Account.
  3. Enter your account info and new email address.
  4. Press “Next.”
  5. Ensure the phone number is left empty on the next screen.

Set Your Age To 15

This is one more vital way to find your way around the phone verification. If you are 12 years old or less, Google will conclude that you might not even be a phone owner. You will simply need to set up another birth year. To achieve this, do this:

  1. Access your browser.
  2.  Head to Gmail.
  3. Tap “Create account” way down on your screen.
  4. Select “For Myself” or “For Business.”
  5. Type in your account info and a new email address.
  6. Tap “Next.”
  7. Ensure your birth year is set to fifteen years before the present. For instance, if it’s 2020, make sure your birth year is set to 2005.
  8. Your mobile phone bar should be left empty, rather, make use of the recovery email.
  9. All terms and conditions should be agreed to.

By so doing, Google will make use of your other email address for the verification of your account and a new phone number will not be necessary.
