To check if your phone number has been set to send and receive messages, go to Settings > Messages and tap Send & Receive. If you can't see your phone number, you can link your iPhone number to your Apple ID so you can send and receive iMessages from your phone number


If you can't send or receive messages on your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch – Apple Support (UK)
