To ensure your number works on both Messages and FaceTime, simply go to your phone's settings, access the "Messages" and "FaceTime" sections, and make sure your phone number is selected under "You can be reached by FaceTime at" and "Send & Receive" respectively; this will enable your number for both services on your Apple device. 


Key steps:

  • Open your phone's Settings.
  • Go to "Messages".
  • Select "Send & Receive".
  • Ensure your phone number is checked.
  • Go to "FaceTime".
  • Check the "You can be reached by FaceTime at" section.
  • Make sure your phone number is selected.
