Question 1

What is Number Share - Mobile?

Accepted Answer

Number Share - Mobile lets you make and receive calls using one shared telephone number across all of your capable Verizon LTE devices (eligible devices only). Talk, text and get emails and notifications* on whatever device is at hand, even if you're away from your phone. Use your phone's mobile number with up to 5 connected devices: Your smartphone's mobile number is the "host" and shares your number with your authorized and eligible connected devices. Devices compatible with Number Share - Mobile don't require a separate app to share a number. Number Share - Mobile works only while on the Verizon LTE Network. *Not all features available with all host devices. For use with Android™ and iOS smartphones only. Device and line limits apply. Some of Verizon's services on your smartphone may not work on connected devices. See our Terms of Service for more details.

A shared data plan - Your monthly data allowance is shared with your connected devices. (Shared Data plans are no longer available to add to accounts). *Not available for prepaid or government accounts at this time.

Question 4

How much does using Number Share - Mobile cost?

Accepted Answer

The Number Share - Mobile line access charge for each wearable connected device and Palm is $15/month plus taxes and fees.* Visit our smartwatch plan page to view plan features, prices and discounts. If a connected device stops sharing with Number Share - Mobile and gets its own mobile number, the line access charge will depend on what kind of connected device it is (e.g., smartwatch, tablet, etc.). Visit our connected device plans page and choose a device type to view monthly costs. Note: There's no additional fee for pairing or unpairing Humx on Number Share - Mobile because your smartphone (host device) already includes a line access charge. Incoming calls through Humx depend on your host device's plan. However, calls answered on Humx are charged against the Humx line. *Charges are billed monthly and will appear on your bill. Each call sent and received is charged as one call. Charges will increase if you switch from a sharing access charge to a standalone access charge, where a connected device can act in standalone mode, or if you transfer only your host line to another provider or person. There may also be charges and fees if you transfer your host and/or connected lines to another provider. Charges are billed based on your account price plan. A plan is required for calling and data for both the host smartphone and any connected devices. For wearable devices and Palm, data charges for messaging will apply if you are not on Wi-Fi or using Bluetooth® for both the connected device and the host smartphone. An international calling plan is required for each line (otherwise charges per minute apply while traveling internationally).

Question 5

How do I share a different number with a connected device?

Accepted Answer

When you buy a connected device that can be used as a Number Share - Mobile device, you'll be asked what number you'd like to share. To share a different number with a connected device: Go to the Manage Connected Devices page in My Verizon. Note: You must be an Account Owner or Account Manager to perform this activity. Drag a connected device from the tray at the bottom of the screen to the line you want to share. Note: If you don't see your connected device at the bottom of the screen, you need to add the device to your account first. Note: The host device (your primary mobile phone) must be on the same Verizon account as the connected device (the device that shares your primary phone's mobile number).

Question 6

How many devices can I share with Number Share - Mobile?

Accepted Answer

With Number Share - Mobile, you can share up to 5 connected devices per each host smartphone line. Keep in mind that accounts are limited to 12 phone lines (including smartphones, basic phones, and One Talk phones) and 30 total lines (including phone and connected device lines). Note: Some smartwatches can be used in standalone mode. Each standalone line applies to the 12 line limit. However, if you're using Number Share - Mobile, the standalone line will be part of the 30 total line count (as a connected device). Apple Watch Series 3 and Palm aren't eligible for standalone mode and are limited to the 30 total line count (includes mobile and connected device lines). Palm Phone can only be used as a primary phone and can't be set up as a connected device on Number Share - Mobile.

Accepted Answer

Question 13

Accepted Answer

Learn more with our HD Voice FAQs.

Question 14

What happens if I move in or out of Bluetooth range during a call?

Accepted Answer

Moving in and out of Bluetooth range of your host phone while on a call on the connected device will cause the call to fall back to the host device. For now, if you're going out without the host device, you'll want to wait until you're out of range before you make a call from your connected device.

Question 15

Can I use a Bluetooth headset when sharing a number?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can use a Bluetooth headset with Palm. You can also use Bluetooth headsets with other connected devices, but we don't recommend it. Using a Bluetooth headset with other connected devices may interfere with communication between your connected device and the host device. Palm doesn't pair with your host device through Bluetooth. So you can use a Bluetooth headset without worrying about interference.

Question 16

Can I call the connected device's phone number that's listed on my bill?

Accepted Answer

No, once Number Share - Mobile is activated on your account, the number listed on your bill is blocked and won't work. The connected device will only receive calls when the shared host phone number is called.

Question 17

Can I receive text messages or other notifications on my Hum^x when I pair it with Number Share?

Accepted Answer

No, Number Share - Mobile with Humx is only for voice calls, and doesn't include messages or app alerts.

Question 18

How do 911 calls work with Number Share - Mobile connected devices?

Accepted Answer

If you call emergency 911 from a connected device (e.g., a connected watch), you'll be able to receive the 911 call back from emergency responders, but only on the connected device. You can make a 911 call on Number Share - Mobile connected devices whenever you have a cellular connection. Calls to 911 are routed and answered according to guidelines set by local public safety officials in your area. 9ll calls should only be used for true emergencies. Important: Emergency 911 calls operate differently if a connected device is Wi-Fi Calling-enabled, you are outside of cellular coverage and only Wi-Fi is available. If you plan to have only your connected device (such as a Number Share - Mobile-enabled watch) without taking your paired host phone along, you should update your 911 US address on your paired phone based on where you will be located. This is the location that will be given to emergency services when you call 911 from the connected device (e.g., your watch). You can go to your phone's Settings and change your 911 address at any time. We provide enhanced location information to emergency call takers but can't guarantee your precise location. Mobile phones/devices are affected by the environment. Factors such as weather, terrain and buildings may affect mobile service and the ability to calculate the caller's location, particularly for 911 calls placed indoors. If possible you should always tell the emergency call taker your location. Number Share - Mobile cannot be used to support 911 calls over TTY devices. Alternative accessible means of reaching 911 include: (1) using a TTY or captioned telephone service directly from a cellular or landline telephone; (2) sending a text message to 911 (in areas where text-to-911 is available); or (3) using IP-based relay services, such as IP captioned telephone service or IP Relay from a wireless or landline data connection. For more information, visit our E911 Compliance FAQs.

Question 19

I can't make or take calls on my connected device. What should I do?

Accepted Answer

If you can't make or receive calls, try these steps to fix the issue: Be sure the device you want to use is powered on. Turn both devices off and on. Go to the Manage Connected Devices page in My Verizon and verify your connected device is appearing next to your host device, which means Number Share is set up correctly between your devices. If not, follow the steps to set up Number Share. Complete these steps: Try making an outgoing call from the device. When the device you called starts ringing, it should show the shared number. Try making an incoming call to the shared number from another device. All the devices connected to the network for that shared number should ring.

Question 20

What should I check if my Samsung Gear S3 messaging doesn't seem to be working properly on the shared number?

Accepted Answer

If your messaging isn't working, follow the steps in our Troubleshoot your device page to find a solution.
