One phone number on two different Apple IDs
Hello,
I have an Apple ID and my phone number is linked to it.
Is it possible to create a new Apple ID and use my phone number with that new one?
(along with the old one)
Thanks.
Apple Intelligence is now available on iPhone, iPad, and Mac!

Yes,
I assume you know that you created a new Apple ID the first time you signed in here and that you have a good reason for possibly creating another new one now.

See the data implications below.
Some of these things may apply even though not changing an Apple ID: What to do after you change your Apple ID or password https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204071
Keep in mind that some things available under a first Apple ID will not be available under a new Apple ID. For example, you won’t be able to transfer anything purchased from the App and iTunes Stores to the new ID. And, there are other issues to be addressed.

But, despite any other data loss you can set up family sharing between the IDs to share purchases made with them. See:
