Change number
I thought if you paid the 5.99 a week you could change your number for free this is a lie
No codes or not much to do
Worked better in the past (ai reply is gonna say im not doing it right but it is overly priced and hard to use, user error is not an excuse)
Beware being charged WEEKLY
Ridiculously overpriced and deceptive, as most of these apps are. Will never use again.
Sorry ahh app
says its free then it makes me wait 15 mins for a number and as soon as the timer runs out it resets and u dont get no number bs funcionality i will be suing for false advertisement took 15 mins out of my time dont download this garbage
Rip off
Not even using it and being charged for it. Yet, no one can tell me how to get it cancelled.
👍
Fine
Fraud
Bought two number in a day and got none. Was charged both times
Trash
Been using this app and to be honest you guys need some teams like a customer service to attend to Client 33$ monthly is no change and I barely call or text calls automatically drops messages go at a particular time this app is trash
Lies
Not really free
Go kill yourself
Stupid app bro just kys
Freaking sucksss
You have to pay for almost EVERYTHING you can’t get activation codes without paying
What? Updated
I keep getting texts about not using my number in the past seven days. Though the last time I used it was like an hour before the text message saying that. I sent a text at 3:24pm and received the text about not having used it at 4:18pm. I have in fact have used it in the past 7 days. After texting in 7 days at the supposed 10 day mark it threatened to take my number away like I never sent text messages between the first warning and the threat. I started spamming texts and even a few images because if it still thinks I haven’t used it it will take my number.
It’s not at all free
I loaded the app and it wanted me to choose a phone number. I did that. Then it gave me a price list. I tried to find the free option. I couldn’t find it anywhere. Why say it’s free if it’s a monthly charge? What is free about it?
They will spam block you even if you’re not spamming!
This app used to be good but then their AI for spam blocking is terrible and will just lock you out. I text only one friend and it blocks me. Normal convos too. Don’t purchase!
I thought I struck Gold
This app would have been amazing for me but they don’t offer Tennessee numbers. Just Georgia and Kentucky.
Charges you After you cancel
I’ve cancelled my subscription WAY before renewal and apple is still charging me so now I can’t download any apps.
Not Roth the hassle
I pay for the premium subscription I sent my girl a long story that I wrote and she didn’t get it so I resent it now I can’t send a single message bc it says that I was flagged for spam literally from 2 messages I contacted customer support and of course they have no over ride or could even give me an estimate on when I can send messages again absolutely terrible
Trash
This app is absolute trash bro I can’t login with my own Gmail even tho it says I have an account already what tf
Not workng
I use this app for work, and it hasn’t been sending messages for weeks. I tried contacting customer service twice, and I still have no reply.
Why am I getting notifications??
I use this app every week and I’m getting notifications saying “just one tap to keep your #”. WHY am I getting this message when I use this app WEEKLY??? I WANT A REPLY TO THIS ASAP!! Also I want to see WHY I can’t see my credits that I have. I have around 1200 calling credits and I better still have them!!!
Cheaters
Makes it easy for people to cheat and bully people.
Fraud
False advertising. Not free.
Not good
One time I downloaded this app because I had to make my other one as it was making crashing noises so when I downloaded it, they said I was the wrong number. I was calling my friend and when she was sending me pictures of a drawing with an ex, I keep telling her to stop it, but it wasn’t sending because it was not delivered. How in the world is not delivered when I have Wi-Fi DO NOT GET IT
Can’t even make calls
Literally a 0/10! I can’t even make calls to people on the app. It’s literally horrible.
you failed and lost a okayish review
ima say five issues i have, 1:i have to pay to get verification codes 2:i get calls from people i dont even know 3:why do ypu put a pay wall bihind EVERYTHING 4: WAY TOO MANY ADS 5: not enough protection from hackers/spam callers
Not free
Obviously this is not free.
USELESS
It won’t let you receive verification codes unless you pay 👎
Worst app ever
So basically you will be banned for no reason so dont bother buying number
, even if you buy they will block you and when try emailing them, they always have the same answer.
Worst app ever don’t recommend it

Worst app
They will block you without even say why , they will just take your money and dont even care about their customers.
Do Not Download ThIs App
Pay very close attention to the details when signing up for not only this app but many others. Misleading terms and conditions will cause you to have mysterious unauthorized transactions all over the place. Stop the shady business please! Do Not Use This App!!!!
Paywall galore
Already know why we need it for verification or second phone. Too bad you must pay .
Genuinely sucks
It’s so buggy and costs money for a number
GARBAGE
Literally the day after you pay the app goes out. Because it’s so cheap, I decided to do a little experiment for legal purposes. 🙂 AND the only way to leave a review is to give 5 stars.. Zero stars given
Barley works
I've had to get new numbers multiple times because my texts just don't go through
absolutely horrible
paid for nothing
Spam
You can only text during certain hours the rest of the time it’s all about spam. It literally tells you no texting it’s spam time.
Error notification
Im getting error notification when i want to call
No customer support
I have been unable to make calls for over a month now and am unable to submit a help request form. When I try to submit a help request form, it sends a link to my email and no matter how quick I click it the link says it’s expired and to submit a new form. I used to use this app a lot but will have to cancel my subscription since it is not working and there is no way to reach support. Please offer a way to reach a person for support or fix the bugs with the help requests
Worst texting app ever don’t pay or use it
You’re a scam ! And all you do is take people’s money and block them from using your services !!!
Scam
Doesn’t actually text and won’t connect your phone calls
Not free, no local numbers
Fee based. There are no local Phoenix, AZ numbers.
Can’t even get a text
AVOID
This one tries to force you to pay for EVERYTHING. Literally use ANY other app like this. AVOID.

Thieves!!!!!! Report to the BBB and Apple
I purchased premium and it won’t let me get a number, the app keeps glitching. They stole my money for nothing!
Not free
The word "free" sure is thrown around alot in the description only to cost $30 a month
This app serves malware ads.
Just like the title says. This apps serves deceptive adds to trick users into installing malware.
Overboard on ads
Starting with the “Enable notifications to never miss an important call or message” at the top of the screen that will NOT disappear until you activate notifications. It presents it as an option but no, it’s mandatory. It blocks buttons and makes the app vote smooth. This is even with the premium subscription.
2nd. I understand to a certain extent that ads pop up until you get premium but Hell, you blink and you have an ad, you can’t even finish typing a little text before an ad pops up, interrupts you mid text to watch this ad or Update so you don’t have to. These tactics make this app unlikable and will be canceling my subscription. Again even with the subscription you don’t have much freedom to set up the app the way YOU want to.
Do not recommend.

Horrendous + scam
I just paid for this app premium and it turns out to be a scam. The app requires access to tracking and contact. The app doesn’t allow texting - everything but friendly to use.
Took money for credit 😡
I used the app back in the day and it worked well. Well now I went to purchase 100 credits via Apple Pay and after …it gives no credits and just crashes. Help line down not work. Just stole my money.
This app is trash
Do not use this app it gave me a virus
Stupid
Make unsay for “ activation links”
