Nowadays, if you wish to create a new Gmail account, Google might need a phone number verification. Before now, this was not compulsory, but Google eventually made it mandatory and potentials users of the mail platform have to comply.
However, if you do not want Google to have your phone number or you just do not like sharing that private information, there are several solutions. Want to know them right away, see How To Use Gmail Without A Phone Number:
How Can I Create a Gmail Account Without Verification?
The Gmail application is one of the simplest ways to create a Gmail account without verification. Why? Because, no matter how you register, you can decide to not share that personal information. Or, you can just enter your age as 15, and Google will assume you have no phone number yet.
Be aware that even if the instructions above work, at times, when you try to sign in to a different PC, or if you sign in one more time, the application will prompt you to enter your phone number. To bypass this, simply add another e-mail for verification before signing in again, so it will prompt you for that e-mail. Add a different email with your age being 15 and you will be fine.
If all that fails to work, a phone number duping software can help. By so doing, Google will have a phone number that is not yours.
