They must also be sure to enter the phone number you used to verify WithYou on your device.

How do I get a phone number verification code for my tablet rather than my phone?

In order to use WithYou, you need a phone number that can receive a text message, but it does not necessarily have to be a phone number on the device you are using. For instance, if you have a cell phone and a tablet, you can enter the cell phone number when you set up WithYou on your tablet, and then enter the code that is sent to your cell phone into your tablet. This phone number can only be used by you on your device - so you cannot use the same phone number as someone else who is using the system.


Back to the List of Questions




How can I verify my phone number if I cannot receive text messages?

Unfortunately, WithYou requires the use of text messages for phone number verification. If you cannot receive a text message, contact us at support@withme.zendesk.com and we will be happy to see what we can do for you.

What do iOS and/or Android mean?

iOS and Android are the two most common operating systems on smartphones and tablets today. Products made by Apple, such as the iPhone and the iPad, work with iOS. Most other smartphones and tablets, such as Samsung, Nokia, Motorola, Ericsson, Nexus, LG, HTC, ZTE, Huawei, and many others, use Android. There are a few other operating systems out there, such as the Windows Phone and BlackBerryOS, but iOS and Android cover over 95% of the smartphones and tablets in the world. At this time, WithYou will only work on these two systems.
