How to create Twitter account without phone number

Adding a phone number to your Twitter account benefits you in numerous ways and is very much recommended, but if you insist not to give Twitter your phone number, simply click on the Skip link when asked to enter phone number during the registration of Twitter account.

If you are continuously prompted for adding phone number with a warning message about to prove if you are a human and non-spammer, there is no way to skip this and you will have to give them a legit phone number for verification.

This often happen and get triggered when you create multiple accounts in short period of time using the same computer or IP address which makes you look like a spammer or bot. If that’s the case, you will just have to enter your phone number to verify.
