Hi👋🏻 !


  1. Make sure that you’re connected to a cellular or Wi-Fi network. If you're using an iPhone, you need SMS messaging to activate your phone number with FaceTime. Depending on your carrier, you might be charged for this SMS.
  2. Go to Settings > General > Date & Time and make sure that your time zone is set correctly.

If this solved you problem then mark as Solved/helpful so other can also solve their problem if they get same issue if it didn’t solve your problem let me know.

Thanks.
