Mobile number for Mac Air?

Is there any advantage to having a mobile number assigned to my Mac Air similar to what I have to my iPad & iPhone?

Hi DLBoat,


Thanks for reaching out.


The telephone number association on your Mac can be good for many reasons:


  1. To make outbound telephone calls using your iPhone.
  2. To make FaceTime Video or Audio Calls.
  3. To send or receive iMessages and Text Messages.


These are all features of continuity, which you can read about in this Apple Article - HT204681
