My friend used my number to sign up her Apple ID, will this affect me in any area in the future?

Hello Anonymous0925,


We’re glad you reached out with this great question.


In a short answer, yes. Your friend using your phone number will receive your text messages, your two step verification codes, FaceTime calls, to name a few. So, you don’t want to share your Apple ID information with another Apple ID. For more details about your Apple ID, how it’s used, and security see the links below.
