It could be challenging to create a Gmail account without a phone number because Google typically needs a phone number for account verification. To create a Gmail account without a phone number, there are a few options you might try.
Method 1: Using a Recovery Email
- Go to the Gmail sign-up page (https://accounts.google.com/signup).
- Fill in your first name, last name, and desired email address.
- Choose a strong password and confirm it.
- Scroll down and click on “Skip” when prompted to add a phone number.
- Enter your birthdate, gender, and recovery email address (a secondary email you can use to recover your account if needed).
- Follow the remaining prompts to complete the account creation process.
Method 2: Using a Temporary Phone Number
- Go to a website that offers temporary phone numbers, such as https://receive-smss.com/.
- Select a phone number from the list provided and copy it.
- Go to the Gmail sign-up page (https://accounts.google.com/signup).
- Fill in your first name, last name, and desired email address.
- Choose a strong password and confirm it.
- Paste the temporary phone number into the phone number field.
- Follow the remaining prompts to complete the account creation process.
- Once you receive the verification code via text message, enter it into the verification field to confirm your account.
Method 3: Contacting Google Support
If the above methods don’t work, you can contact Google Support and explain your situation to see if they can offer any assistance in creating an account without a phone number.
Note that while these methods may work, Google may update its policies and procedures at any time, which may make it difficult or impossible to create an account without a phone number in the future.
