Easy to use and no hassles. TextNow is the only one I use now. I highly recommend.
I find the TextNow app very helpful as it provide me with a free second phone number. And its reliable too.
I've had TextNow for YEARS and never had any issues. Not a bot and or paid customer, you owe it to yourself to see how reliable this service is!
There is nothing bad to say about this app and I highly recommend it.
I have beeb using it for more than 2 years without changing the number.
Everything is and has been great.And and i i have have to to have have 50 50 fifty fifty characters imagine that there.
The phone service has been awesome. I wish the data service was cheaper then I would not need 2 phone services
I love text now and I've been using it over 5 years now. At the beginning I had paid service through a life line provider and only used text now a few times a month. But in the last few years I've only been using text now as phone service and I love that it was only $4.99 for a SIM card and as advertised it worked everywhere. I'm giving it 4 out of 5 stars because of the data plan. The advertisement about the unlimited data is a little misleading by calling it "essential data". Other than that I'm still very pleased with text now and my service.
Works well at a low cost. Have had no issues with Text Now. Glad I found it.

It has helped me so much during hard times it really helped me out I still use it I love this app I recommend it to everyone as a matter of fact my friend recommended this app to me.
It's seams very slow to me. But I like the notifications they're short and very clear to the point. No confusing words just basic simple English. Thank you for that 😊.
My experience has been great because I can make important calls, like my doctor's and pharmacy with no issues or problems
I am using text now to make wifi calls because the clarity of calls is superior to what i have received from mainstream contract service providers.
Also, text now has NEVER dropped a call.
No endless holds for customer service either!
Have used the free app for years, will be upgrading to their cell service soon.
App has worked flawlessly for years
My experience with textnow has been the best. I really like the improvements
Good service all around so far I have had no dropped calls great tech support
I give my TextNow # to everyone that i don't want to have my main number. My main number is the # I don't ever change and don't want to have to change. I can change my TextNow # whenever i need to. So i just give my text now # to people i don't want to be able to keep calling, plus it keeps me from having a block list a mile long.
Answer: No limits I have used this app dozens of times a day and for several hours on some days
Answer: Well well well, u pushed the right button. I don't trust them at all. They tried hardly to get a photo of any of my government IDs, together with a photo of my credit card pretending to verify my identity and they rejected all other means for verification including calling my bank.
