Phone verification is Not planned. We do not ask for a phone number or an SMS code, at sign-up or at upload.

What we decided

  • Sign-up asks for no phone number and sends no SMS code.
  • A video does not play until you verify a domain. The verified domain is the gate.

Why

  • A user must verify a domain to use the service. We do not need a phone check as well.
  • We do not run an SMS service, so there is no phone step to keep working.

What it means for you

  • Go straight from sign-up to your first upload.
  • Verify your domain before you expect a video to play. See Accounts, projects and domains.
  • Older guides may mention a phone step. Ignore it. You do not need to call any phone step in the API.
