Protecting Personal Phone Numbers
Avoid giving out your personal mobile number during account setup on privacy-focused email platforms. A temporary number receives the SMS code while keeping your real phone number completely confidential.
SMS Verification
Receive ProtonMail SMS Verification Codes with OnayApp
When creating a new account or verifying an existing profile on ProtonMail, you are frequently prompted to provide a mobile phone number for security checks. Submitting your personal phone number compromises your identity by linking your private mobile line directly to your encrypted communications platform. This increases your exposure to unexpected text messages, automated calls, and personal data tracking across the web.
For individuals who choose ProtonMail specifically to safeguard their privacy, entering primary personal contact details negates much of that protection. Using a temporary virtual phone line offers a direct, practical solution. It allows you to receive the required account activation text message without disclosing your actual mobile number or compromising your personal details.
OnayApp simplifies this process by delivering instant virtual numbers on both iOS and Android platforms. Users purchase in-app coins and spend them only when requesting a number for a specific platform. Selected numbers stay active for about ten minutes, giving you sufficient time to trigger and receive your verification code. If an incoming message is not detected within that window, the coins return automatically to your account balance.
You can choose numbers from numerous supported countries, such as Poland, Ukraine, Latvia, Belarus, Azerbaijan, Cameroon, Tunisia, Germany, Indonesia, or Iran. Incoming SMS verification codes arrive instantly within the application via push notification, ensuring a smooth registration experience without long-term commitments or subscription plans.
