Extra Sim Card for Google Store?

Alfred_S

raccoondad Sorry, didn't see your reply. I wouldn't login with my Google account but a fake account. The extra SIM card would just be because you need a phone number to create an account

Alfred_S you can create a google account without a phone number by either

creating a mew profile with play store/play store services installed -> try create account
factory reset phone and install play store/ play serivices -> try creatw account

-maybe you need to be in public wifi

If this does not work, you can always create one on a normal factory reset android device without phone number (use public wifi if you need that)

I have tried several times to create a google account without phone number. This does not work. At least not in my country. So I understand the idea of this approach. It used to be different a few years back.

I've heard a possible workaround is loading the YouTube all, then creating an account through there. I'm not sure if it still works though.

What about temp sms services like https://temp-sms.org/

It is almost impossible to get a number for my country in those services. And even if you succeed your account can be disabled two days later. And you may not be successful to redeem a play store gift card.

schweizer you need a phone number for a goolge account on a brand new phone?

If all of these dont work you could also use a emulator on another pc and an vpn and emulate a new android device (with vpn set to anither country). This way they should let you create an account without phone number.

(but i do not know if, if you really can not even setup an google account without a phone number on a new phone, that they dont like want suddenly a real number from you if they detect your location... )

schweizer You CAN create a google account without proving a phone number!

Just follow this guide and remember to turn on MFA (TOTP) right away. I've created 5+ accounts without using my real name or phone number using this method.

If two people live in different countries, and one person reports that it is possible to create a Google account without a phone number and the other person reports that it isn't possible, both reports might be accurate.

de0u Fair point, I agree. But following the approach I linked above will increase the likelihood of success whatever country you're in.

No need for sms. Free method;
Grab an old Samsung: Go to settings > Accounts & Backup > Remove All Google Accounts. Change Timezone + VPN. Clear GPlayStore Storage and cache.
Then add new account under Accounts & Backup.

Not the most anonymous way but atleast its working and free.
