No. You can create your account and use Knowunity without adding a phone number. If the app asks for one, you can skip it.
When the app asks for a phone number
Some students are asked for a phone number as part of a test. Other students are not asked at all.
- During setup: some new accounts see What's your phone number? after the Pro offer. Enter your number and tap Continue, or tap Skip.
- When you open the app: some students without a number see Add your phone number to secure your account. Tap Add phone number to enter it, or Not now to close it. This message appears at most three times, with at least a week between each time.
If you do not see these screens, your account is not part of the test. You cannot opt in or out, and support cannot switch the step on or off. Younger accounts are never asked.
I added my number earlier
If you added a number, it is saved to your account. You do not need to do anything. Your account works the same with or without a number.
Good to know
- A phone number is never required to use Knowunity.
- If you have a question about a number saved to your account, use the support form under Privacy and data.
