1. [R1] Text Me 1/5 · US Doesn’t work: I’ve been unable to receive or make calls despite paying premium for months now this app is honestly trash
2. [R7] Text Me 1/5 · US Does not work: I cannot get calls out. Worked ok first 5 months, suddenly stopped working
3. [R27] Text Me 3/5 · GB Review: Can’t receive texts ??
4. [R36] Text Me 1/5 · US Text failed: I’m not able to text for more than 24 hours now you really need to fix your app, no customer support and I just subscribed yesterday again
5. [R3] Text Me 3/5 · US Texting app: It kinda sucks that people got to pay extra fees to be able to use these texting apps. But it is what it is…
6. [R4] Text Me 1/5 · US Awful app: This app has a pay wall. I order to get certain texts you need to upgrade. Not free at all. Dumb horrible app that takes advantage of people who are trying to get messages, and they want you to allow tracking? Scammers.
7. [R16] Text Me 1/5 · US It’s very expensive: It’s not free . The moment you get any sort of activation code or verification code they will block the code and force you to subscribe at $29.99 a month just to read it .
8. [R40] Text Me 1/5 · US paying: why am i paying yall for a FREE texting app it’s screaming broke and desperate
9. [R6] Text Me 3/5 · US Text me: It's good and all but I was texting my sister and said I was spam and now I can't text on it anymore and so many ads it won't even let me text at all
10. [R12] Text Me 3/5 · US Rating: Don’t like how my messages get deleted & can never get them back but other than that I’d recommend my friend
11. [R13] Text Me 1/5 · US Can’t send too many messages will lock you out: Literally just texting one friend and if you send too many texts in a row it locks you out for 24 hours. Even just to the same friend! Very annoying
12. [R24] Text Me 3/5 · GB Glitch: It wouldn’t let me load into the app for some reason! But it works for my sister.
13. [R19] Text Me 1/5 · US Used to be good not anymore: I’ve had this app for years and paid the $20 a year to keep my number all of a sudden my number is gone and I just paid my 20 in May
14. [R22] Text Me 1/5 · US purchases don't work: Subscribed to a plan, made me continue to subscribe without getting my number. Wasted money AND time.
15. [R25] Text Me 1/5 · US Buggy App: Can’t click any buttons in the app. It just flashes at me. No support and i lost my number despite paying every month
16. [R15] Text Me 3/5 · GB Mr a mia: Poor network
17. [R18] Text Me 3/5 · GB Overall I was pleased with the service.: During past two months it has worked reasonably well. Sometimes it has been difficult to ring me and at times the line has dropped in the middle of conversation. But I suppose it was mainly due to source of the call (Iran) and not any problem with text me. Overall I was pleased with the service. I will have no hesitation to renew my subscription should the
18. [R32] Text Me 1/5 · US Need to work better: Ducks need better service or something unhelpful & sucks
19. [R43] Text Me 4/5 · US not a bot this is honestly a nice app!!: i mean i hardly got this app this hour but it works like a charm especially because i was blocked by someone on my real number... lol but anyway its okay that theres ads i know theyre meant to be in your face but it shouldnt be where youre typing it makes it to where so much stuff is going on but who knows maybe the app could be worse i barely got it but im
20. [R48] Text Me 1/5 · US Not worth it: Too many ads too many bugs. Other apps with not nearly as many ads nor bugs
21. [R52] TextNow 5/5 · US TextNow: Very good app
22. [R53] TextNow 3/5 · US Good app: I do love to use TextNow to talk to my brother
23. [R55] TextNow 5/5 · US Good review: I love TextNow soooo much IVe been using it for a couple of years now and the only issue I've ever had with it is the codes for different app because thats basically thé whole point of a paid number I would, and have, recommended this to countless friends. It works for Android AND Apple cross texting which I find nice.
24. [R58] TextNow 5/5 · US Very helpful app: So hi am Amir I been using this app for about two weeks and it’s been very help and it’s a good app for calling android uses especially if you don’t have your own phone number i will recommend this to all my firends
25. [R69] Text Free 5/5 · US The BEST!!!: The best free text/call app out there!!!
26. [R70] Text Free 3/5 · US Could be better: It always has adds and when you call the quality is horrible even when I have internet!.
27. [R72] Text Free 5/5 · US Review: It’s ok I really like this app
28. [R77] Text Free 2/5 · US Call quality: I just made a call with WiFi that said I had excellent service and I could barely hear the person. The volume is extremely low, and the call quality was very poor.
29. [R79] textPlus 1/5 · US Took my money: I paid for an annual subscription and could not make 1 phone call and I was able to send a text which was supposed to be unlimited calls and texts within the U.S., but it said that I was sending too many text messages after 1 message. After about a week of going around and around with some bot pretending to be live support, and being denied a refund request 3 times by the App Store
30. [R80] textPlus 5/5 · US Random guy: I like this so much because the verification code process was free unlike other 2nd phone number apps
31. [R83] textPlus 4/5 · US A little Cumbersome but works: It has a few features that are really nice, but personally , for me, it has too much packed into a little program that should be neat and sweet.
32. [R87] textPlus 5/5 · US Jjjjh: It's a good app
33. [R94] Talkatone 5/5 · US Great app: Excellent
34. [R97] Talkatone 5/5 · US Bug: It’s good but there’s a bug where if your a free user and there’s a call me option on whatever app or website ruling a Talkatone phone number, it actually goes through without needing a subscription. Please fix this bug
35. [R100] Talkatone 5/5 · US Help me: I love this app making calls and texting ..I uninstalled the app and reinstalled it again. I can’t login keep saying unspecified error occurred try again . Any help please .
36. [R103] Talkatone 4/5 · US free call N text: works great for me as long you have good WI-FI
37. [R110] Burner 5/5 · US Amazing service: I needed to respond to a text from my builder after closing, but didn’t want him to have my new phone number. This app worked perfectly. Simple, intuitive layout, and they even let you pick from a variety of local area codes. 5/5
38. [R114] Burner 4/5 · US Needs minor changes: The contact card picture is too small on the contract card and needs to be bigger. Look at how the app Hush does it. They have a nice interface
39. [R116] Burner 5/5 · US Love it: Very good app and reasonable prices, i dont have to worry about using my personal numbers and get lots of spam calls and this is a good way to have a second number for work then carrying around two phones!
40. [R120] Burner 5/5 · US gz: good app
41. [R30] Text Me 1/5 · US Shut down my service: I had this on my phone for less than a day. I was talking to exactly one person back-and-forth, equal conversation and all of a sudden I got a message saying that my account had been limited for one hour due to suspicion of spamming and I would be unable to send out any text messages for that time. I can't even imagine where that could come from. But a number you can't rely o
42. [R5] Text Me 5/5 · US No RCS only SMS: Wish it had RCS messaging
43. [R54] TextNow 1/5 · US Want to love it: The call quality is okay but you have to be on WiFi. I don’t like that they charge you if you want to receive any type of verification code. This app charges weekly to get verification codes
44. [R56] TextNow 3/5 · US Why not: Why do they not have like a FaceTime and if I get a code sent to my phone I have to get vip like what the hell
45. [R68] Text Free 2/5 · US THE CODESSSS: Literally the only reason I got this app was to verify a code please make this free I realize everything else is free but I feel like a lot of people only need the app to do this
46. [R71] Text Free 1/5 · US Verification Codes: I paid the 10$ and it specifically said in the paid section I would get this perk. Well I paid and this number I was provided has not been receiving verification codes!
