Greetings,
If you are having difficulty adding your number for use in iMessages, begin by following the guidance found here:
Add or remove your phone number in Messages or FaceTime - Apple Support
"Set up your phone number
On your iPhone:
- Go to Settings > Messages and make sure iMessage is turned on. You may need to wait a moment for it to be activated.
- Tap Send & Receive. If you see "Use your Apple ID for iMessage", tap it and sign in with the same Apple ID that you use on your Mac, iPad and iPod touch.
- In the "You can receive iMessages to and Reply From" section, make sure your phone number and Apple ID are selected.
- Go to Settings > FaceTime and make sure your phone number and Apple ID are selected in the "You can be reached by FaceTime on" section."
Take care.
