I have purchased a new Sim for a router and wish to add it to my phone app. The router requires a standard Sim - my phone a smaller one. I have no way of receiving the confirmation code without destroying the standard sim. Is there a solution?

What router do you have? Most have the ability to send and receive SMS messages via the router's web GUI.

To sign up to the app, you’d need the SMS verification, it may be worth putting the SIM in a supported device to receive the text, as we don’t officially support usage of our SIM cards in routers.
