Phone is stuck on verifying number

I recently replaced my phone and when I went to text people it only shows up as my Apple ID. I’ve tried everything but it always says “verifying”

iPhone XR, iOS 14

Hey Kat_bart1234,


It sounds like you're having issues verifying your number for messages. We can understand wanting to get that resolved. We want to help.


We'd recommend trying to remove and re-add your number using the steps in this article: Add or remove your phone number in Messages or FaceTime


Thanks!
