How to make a google account without phone number

[SRZ]

You do not need a Gmail address to own a Google account. Google’s signup has one link — “Use your existing email address instead” — and it builds the account on an inbox you already have. No mailbox, no new number.

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

The part that ends the account hunt — you don’t need more accounts, you need more addresses.

1 Google account → 30 aliases → signups everywhere → 1 inbox

One inbox, thirty addresses, twenty signups that never learn your real one.

DuckDuckGo Email	nothing	unlimited @duck.com
Firefox Relay	an account	50 masks
SimpleLogin · addy.io	an account	10 each, both open source

The only truly separate accounts you’ll ever need: five, via Family Link, with no phone number — Google’s own page.

🔧 If you do want a second account — the device window

Since Feb 2025 Google swaps SMS for a QR scan when the request looks like a farm: a VPN or proxy IP, a public IP that already made accounts, a profile that made three yesterday.

Android: Settings → Accounts → Add account → Create new
Gmail app, or a fresh ChromeOS Flex install — the web form’s phone field never appears
Roughly 4–6 per device and IP, then the wall
The honest reset is Furru_Furru’s 7–10 day cooldown above — the risk score decays with time, not with a trick
What GrapheneOS users report: public Wi‑Fi, create from inside the Play Store, skip what it offers

• Grab a @duck.com alias
• Sign up somewhere new with it
• Realise you never needed the second Gmail
