"Change your phone number?" notification Since I got my new Google Pixel, I've received a "Change your phone number?" notification upon each boot up. Nothing I've done has remedied the issue...

Here's what I've tried so far:


Selected the notification, provided my credentials, updated my phone number (which has been the same for years), and applied the changes.
Rebooted lots of times.
Wiped the cache for Google Play and Google Play Services.
Removed my account's recovery phone number, then re-added my phone number.
Removed my Google account from the phone, then added it again.


Short of factory resetting the device, I'm not sure what else to try. This issue has been going on for 8 days now. It's rather frustrating.

Here's a screenshot of the issue:
This may not be the ultimate 'answer' to your question, but I too received a similar notification from Google Play services just yesterday:
As you can see, mine is slightly different in that it was asking for me to "add" my "new" number as opposed to change it. The thing is, my phone is not new (2 year old Nexus 5X, most recently fully reset more than 9 months ago), nor are any of my account/numbers, and I have not done anything recently in the way of adding phone numbers (cellular or Google Voice) or recently connecting Google accounts to the device.

At first blush the message I received just looks like Google attempting to get people to fill in the phone number field on all Google accounts, but that doesn't make sense in my case as the account referenced does have a phone number configured for security purposes. Even if the specific field they care about is empty I don't know why they would have worded the message as such, making it sound like they are somehow aware of a "new" number added to my phone, somewhere. It really was a strange notification to receive.

So with that said, I wonder if your similar notification on your Pixel is a symptom of a larger issue Google is having on their back-end systems. So far I have only received my bizarre notification once, it didn't coincide with a restart of the phone, and restarting the phone now doesn't seem to trigger it. So again, this may not be the ultimate answer to your specific symptom, but it seems like Google has gone notification happy with Google Play services soliciting phone number input.
