Just like WhatsApp and other VOIP Apps, Signal Private Messenger verifies its users by sending a Six-digit verification code to your Phone Number.

Hence, a functioning Phone Number that can receive text messages, phone calls or both is required to get your Free Signal Private Messenger Account.

To meet this requirement, you can use Free Google Voice Phone Number or paid Skype Phone Number. If you live outside USA, you can try to the second method as provided below.

Note: If you have already verified Signal, delete your current number from Signal by uninstalling the app and reinstalling it back again on your phone.

1. Verify Signal Using Google Voice, Skype, TextNow

This method involves using Google Voice or TextNow Phone Number to verify your Signal Account and works only if you are living within United States.

Step#1. Get Google Voice Phone Number

Both Google Voice and Skype provide phone numbers that can receive SMS Messages within USA. While Google Voice is free to use, Skype charges a monthly fee.

All that is required to Get Free Google Voice Phone Number is to sign up for Google Voice using your Gmail Account. Similarly, you can sign up for Skype Account using your Microsoft Account.

Another option is to order TextNow SIM Activation Kit and use TextNow Phone Number to complete Signal verification process.

Step#2. Download & Install Signal Private Messenger

Download Signal Private Messenger App on your Android Phone from Google Play Store. If you are using an iPhone download the App from the App Store.

Step#3. Verify Signal Using Google Voice Phone Number

Open Google Voice to receive the Verification Code from Signal and Enter the Verification Code on this screen.

Once your Google Voice phone number is verified, you can start using Signal on your phone, even if it does not have its own Phone Number and a functioning SIM Card.

2. Verify Signal Using Landline Phone Number

While it is possible to get Google Voice Phone Number from outside United States, we are not sure if this can be used to verify Signal Account.

In our testing, we were unable to verify Signal using Free TextNow Phone Number. Hence, the only option that might work in your area is to use your Landline Phone Number to verify Signal Account.

Step#1. Download & Install Signal Private Messenger

Step#2. Verify Signal Using Landline Phone Number

On the next screen, select Country > Enter your Landline Phone Number and tap on Next.

On the next screen, wait for 60 seconds and tap on I didn’t get a code.

In the pop-up menu, select Call Me Instead option and wait for Signal to send an automated call to your Landline Phone Number.

Receive the Call on your Landline > Note down your Six-digit security code and enter the Code to verify your Phone Number.

Once your Landline Phone Number is verified, you can start using Signal on your iPhone or Android Phone, even if it does not have its own Phone Number or SIM Card.
