Multiple phone numbers on one apple ID.

I switched to a new phone yestereday. There are 3 phone numbers (1 adult and 2 teens) linked to one apple ID. All 3 numbers are listed as "recheachable" and are receiving the primary numbers text messages. I am not able to "edit" the other numbers listed off the reachable list. How do I remove the unwanted numbers off the reachable list without interrupting their service.

If you remove the number, it will not receive the codes anymore.


You need to change/add the number on your Apple ID. Look in the Security section when signed in online. You may have to add the new number before you can remove the old number. After the change, allow up to 24 hours for the change to sync. Before trying to make the change, sign out of Messages/FaceTime on all devices/computers.
