To log in to BOTIM on Android or iPhone, open the app, choose your country code, enter the mobile number linked to your account, and complete phone-number verification. You need access to an active number that can receive the required verification message or call. If you are returning to BOTIM on a different phone, use your existing registered number rather than creating a new account.
This guide focuses on signing in to the mobile app. If you are trying to connect BOTIM on a computer instead, follow our BOTIM Web guide. Screens and button labels can vary with app updates, so follow the prompts shown on your device.
Before You Log In: What You Need
Have your phone, an internet connection, and access to the SIM or mobile number registered with BOTIM. Enter the correct international country code; for a UAE mobile number, that is +971. Make sure your number is active and can receive SMS or phone calls. BOTIM says its account activation does not support virtual VoIP numbers.
If the app is outdated, update it from the Google Play Store or Apple App Store. Avoid unknown APK files or websites offering a “BOTIM login code,” because verification codes should stay private.
How to Log In to BOTIM on Android
- Open the official BOTIM app. If you already have it installed, launch it on your Android phone. If a welcome or phone-number screen appears, proceed from there.
- Select your country code. Check the country shown beside the number field before typing. In the UAE, choose +971 and enter the rest of your mobile number in the format requested by the app.
- Enter your registered mobile number. Use the number linked to your existing account. Review every digit before continuing, because an incorrect number can send the verification code to somebody else or fail the check.
- Request and enter the verification code. Follow the app’s prompts and type the code you receive. Keep this code private even if someone claims to work for BOTIM.
- Finish any on-screen setup. Once verification succeeds, follow any permission or profile prompts appropriate to your device. You can then check whether your chats and account details are available.

How to Log In to BOTIM on iPhone
The iPhone login process is similar, but the appearance of buttons and permission prompts may differ from Android. Use the following steps for an existing account.
- Launch BOTIM on your iPhone. Open the installed app. If you need an update, use the App Store rather than an unofficial download site.
- Choose the country and type your number. Select your current registered number’s country code, then carefully enter the mobile number connected to your BOTIM account.
- Complete phone-number verification. Follow the prompts to receive and enter the verification code. An iPhone may suggest an incoming SMS code above the keyboard; you can enter it yourself if needed.
- Review permissions and account details. Once signed in, respond to notification, microphone, or contacts prompts based on the features you want to use. These permissions are not a substitute for verifying your phone number.

Why Is My BOTIM Login Not Working?
Login trouble often starts with a phone-number or verification issue rather than a problem with the whole account. Check the simple causes first before reinstalling anything.
| Problem | What to check |
|---|---|
| Verification code does not arrive | Check your mobile number, country code, signal and SMS reception. Wait a few minutes before trying again. |
| Number is not accepted | Confirm the number is active and not a virtual VoIP number. Check the format shown in the app. |
| Login stalls or fails to load | Check Wi-Fi or mobile data and try again after restoring the connection. |
| You are outside your home country | Make sure your SIM can receive messages while abroad and roaming is enabled if required. |
| Old account is not accessible | Try the previously registered number and use the proper account-recovery route if you no longer control it. |
BOTIM’s official activation instructions recommend checking that the SIM is installed and active, asking someone to call or text you, switching airplane mode on and off, checking cellular coverage, and requesting another code after a short wait. When travelling, they also recommend checking international roaming.
For more detailed fixes, see our dedicated guide on BOTIM verification codes not arriving. If the entire app is having trouble, our BOTIM not working guide covers wider connection issues. Do not clear app data or uninstall without checking what may happen to locally stored chats or settings.
Can You Use Your Old BOTIM Account on a New Phone?
You can attempt to sign in using the same mobile number that was registered on your old device, provided you can complete the required verification. The important part is access to that number: moving to a new phone does not automatically give you access to an old SIM or SMS inbox.
Signing in and transferring chat history are different tasks. If you want to move your account and data, read our BOTIM phone transfer guide. If you have lost access to your previous number, use the account recovery guide and check official support options instead of attempting to bypass verification.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I log in to BOTIM without a verification code?
When BOTIM requests phone-number verification, you must complete its approved verification process. There is no safe reason to use a third-party website promising to bypass a code. Never share your verification message with strangers.
Why am I not receiving my BOTIM verification code?
The number or country code may be wrong, your SIM might have weak service, or messages may be delayed. Test whether regular SMS can reach you, make sure the SIM is active, and wait before trying again. Travellers should check roaming.
Can I log in using a new number instead of my old one?
Entering a different number does not automatically restore the account linked to your old number. If you need to change the registered number, follow BOTIM’s supported account-change or recovery process. Keep your original number available where possible.
Final Thoughts
For most users, BOTIM login is straightforward: open the mobile app, enter the registered phone number, and complete verification. If it fails, start by checking the number, SIM, coverage and incoming SMS before trying more disruptive fixes. The fastest way to protect access to an existing account is to keep control of the number used to register it.
