    • This is an article on how to change the phone number associated with your Apple ID. If you just changed your phone number, you’ll need to update your trusted phone number so you don’t lose access to two-way authentication and account recovery. If iMessage and FaceTime still show the old phone number, you can edit the information in Settings. Additionally, if your Apple ID is a phone number instead of an email address (common in China, India, and some other regions), you can update your Apple ID after switching to the new number.
