How do I verify my phone number?

In the Vergr phone app, open Settings, then Security, then Phone number, and tap Verify from my SIM. Vergr reads the number from your SIM, so there's no code. A verified number earns 1,000 VP once.

Phone app

  1. Tap your profile picture at the top of Home, or swipe in from the left edge, to open the menu. Tap Settings.
  2. Tap Security, then Phone number.
  3. Tap Verify from my SIM, then allow Vergr to read your phone number when Android asks.
  4. If your phone has two SIMs, tap the number you want, then Verify.

Desktop app, Website

You can't verify on the website or the desktop app, because only the phone app can read your SIM. They show a code you can scan to get the phone app.

Your number is private and never shown on your profile. Vergr reads only your own number, never your calls, messages or contacts. A verified number also lets the friend who invited you claim their reward.

It says my SIM doesn't tell Vergr its number.

Some SIMs and eSIMs don't store their own number. You can type it in so friends who have your number can find you, but a typed number isn't verified, so it doesn't earn the 1,000 VP or count for an invite.

It saved my number but says it isn't verified.

Verifying needs the Vergr app from Google Play on a phone that hasn't been modified (rooted). Update Vergr from Google Play, then open Phone number and tap Verify again.

It says the number is already verified on another account.

One number can be verified on one Vergr account. Remove it from the other account first (Settings, Security, Phone number), then verify it here.

Do I get a text message?

No. Vergr never sends a code by text. The number comes straight from your SIM.
