At least on iOS, apps cannot get the phone number of the device through any APIs in the iOS SDK (AFAIK). So no app on the platform can reliably confirm if the number you entered is the number of the device. They all assume that to be true when you confirm the code they send by SMS. As another reply here has put it, you just need a device to receive the code via SMS. You can then use that code on any other device to set it up.
