Find your phone number on an Android device
The steps to take to find your own phone number on an Android device vary slightly from those you have to take on an iPhone; This is because Android users may be running different versions of the operating system and variations in the way the operating system is implemented across all brands of devices. Therefore, there are likely to be different interfaces depending on the device you are using and the version of the operating system you are running.
The example below is in a LG V40 ThinQ running Android 10, but the process is the same on Android 11.
- Go to Settings and search My phone number in the search bar.
- The result will give you the way to go: System> About Phone> Status.
- Alternatively, launch the Contacts app and you’ll see your own contact information at the top.

For all Android phones, regardless of manufacturer, you can find your phone number by going to Settings> About Phone or About Device> Status> My Phone Number. Some Android phones will have a SIM or SIM card status listed within Status. If this is the case with your cell phone, then you will find your phone number there. If you don’t want to go through all these different menus, you can go to the search bar and type in My Phone Number to directly extract the relevant information.
It’s not difficult to find your phone number once you know how to locate it, so you can help others find their numbers in just a few steps.
