I lost my IPhone 13, can I use the same phone number once I replace. The lost phone has been suspended

I lost my Phone 13 pro max. I will received my replacement phone today. Is it safe for me to use my same phone number? Also, is there any other thing I need to do to protect my information?


iPhone 13 Pro Max, iOS 15

You can use the same phone number if your carrier will send you a SIM card for that number. You shouldn't have to do anything else to protect your data.


Have you tried using iCloud.com/Find My Phone?
