You can also find your own phone number in the settings:
- Open the “Settings” app and select the “Phone” entry.
- Your own number is also at the top under the “My iPhone” entry.
Tips for memorizing your own cell phone number
If you have set yourself the goal of learning the sequence of digits of your cell phone number by heart, there are a few tricks that can help.
- Write the number on a post-it note and stick it somewhere you will see it regularly. Reading the number over and over again will help you memorize it faster.
- Each number can also be associated with a letter on the smartphone keyboard. Perhaps it will be easier for you to build a memory trick if you form letters and then words or a sentence from the numbers. The first letters of the word for your numbers on the keyboard. For example, “I am” is 42.
