TextFree: Second Phone Number 12+

Does the job well, even for free

Edit: can’t delete a review but got supported, actually surprisingly very quickly. Yeah I guess there was a filter that I hit (idk how they’re internal services work cuz I literally just made this account when I first reviewed it) and they fixed it for me. Annoyed that the app didn’t just directly tell me to contact support, but when I did they corrected my account which allowed me to use the service. Pretty neat app, idk if everyone else hating just failed to ask for help but they seem really helpful to me, and the app def isn’t unusable even if you don’t subscribe, the ads are kinda standard and not even that invasive. Anyways sorry I was a D***

My original rude review titled “ Unable to send texts even as a subscriber”:
I’ve contacted support with issue already, so yes I'm waiting to hear back from them to fix this issue (I am stating this for you TextFree, don’t reply to my message telling me to wait, and don’t apologize either for inconvenience maybe just fix what is obviously a recurring issue) This app had been useless from the get-go. I signed up for a new account, chose a number, and tested to see if it could text but the messages would not go through. Every time I sent a text, I would receive the following error message: “ You Need a New Number Apologies, your TextFree number (XXX) XXX-XXXX was inactive and is no longer associated with your account. Choose a new one to continue.”

TextFree app is an Awesome app that can save you lots money

If you have cell phone service that is pay as you go where you pay ten cents per minute you can use your new phone number from this app as a WiFi phone and enjoy unlimited voice calling and not worry about racking up minutes on your prepaid or pay as you go cell phone plan also if you live in an area with poor cell phone service but have a strong WiFi signal then you don’t have to worry anymore about dropped calls using your cell phone as you are using WiFi to make and receive calls. Note No 911 Calls can be made with this service so you must use your cell phone or land line for 911 calls. This feature full phone line comes with voicemail, text, and so much more for $4.99 per month. Calls are clear using your speaker phone and uses less power using WiFi then using a cell phone tower. Plus if you own other cell phones or iPads with no cell service they too will all work using the same local phone number just download TextFree app on all your other devices and you have phones that you can use throughout your home even on locked phones and iPads. You will not be disappointed this is one truly amazing app well worth $4.99 per month and you can try it for free if you don’t mind ads but you risk losing your phone number after 30 days. But your subscription guarantees you can keep your new phone number and is ad free.

This is been a success story also a struggle story me as the reviewer have been using Textfree for over six years close to seven and when I had no way to have a phone service from my iPhone I was able to always have access to people calling me and having textWhich it being a American app I had no idea I’d be able to use it in Europe where I went and subsequently suffered a heart attack still having no phone service tax-free had allowed me to call and text my friends and family in the USA with no extra surcharge and really no problem this was a great thing now if this doesn’t come with the bells and whistles but it still was pretty forward thinking for time it came out it’s still one of the originals and one thing about it it’s stable sometime to glitches but it’s stable overall and I’ve still been able to use it we talking about six years of service that I use pretty much every day I am an original thank you tax-free you really helped me expand on so many things and yes I do have phone service now but I still use this as one of my secondaryNumbers one of the best apps ever invented because it works
