You can also make a lock screen wallpaper that has your number. My lock screen is a photo that says if this phone is found or ICE please call —— and ——-.

Please be aware that a valid phone number given to the holder of your lost/stolen phone can be used against you.
They will text you, claiming to be Apple, saying they have your phone and to sign in to the fake iCloud link they give you to get it back.
Of course, once you provide your Apple ID and password, they can turn off Find My Phone and now can activate your phone.
Thanks for your help. This is what I did: After checking the reviews for the apps, i decided to make my own lock screen from a photo. I took a photo of an abstract painting and went into Photos. Edited using the marker and text. You can drag the text box around and select the size and font that you put in it. I then saved the finished picture to an album called Wallpaper because you can't see which picture has text in the thumbnails. Also, your picture will be enlarged when the lock screen is formed so you can't make the text too large or too near the bottom of the image or it will be cut off when you form the lock screen.
Thanks for pointing out how the phone number can be used against me. I wouldn't have thought of that, but I am offering a reward for the return of the phone and would expect to meet with someone and give them cash at a Starbucks...
One option. I used it an it works well: If Found Lock Screen 2 on the App Store
