Help with connecting a phone number to your account
How to find out which X account your phone is connected to
- Navigate to x.com on a computer. This link only works if you're logged out of X.
- Click on the Activate your account link located on the home page as shown below.
- Enter your phone number when directed, along with the country code.
- If your phone number is linked to a X account, we'll send your phone a text message containing a verification code. Use this code to confirm that the mobile number belongs to you.
- On the following page, X will ask you to complete your X profile. Your username will already be filled in. That username belongs to the same account your phone is tied to.
Possible errors
- If your number is connected to an account and you've already logged in on x.com before, the steps above will prompt you to log in with your username and email instead. Recover a lost password.
- If your mobile number is not connected to any X accounts, you'll see an error message. Sign up for a new account.
