This app has been great need less day. When I need to use Text No, it opens right up for me. No problem. Reception could be hella better for voice calls... Other than that Text Now does the job and gets it done.
I paid for the card, it doesn't work, there is no free calling, and there is no available customer service for assistance. That's about it... Save for the fact that health insurance spammers can get through with perfect signal strength time after time even leaving default four-second vms. I'm not upset or anything, I didn't have high hopes about this from jump street, just saying.
Call quality very poor and line drops very often. I have tried calls over excellent wifi connection but quality is very nad and disappointing.

I get 10-20 spam calls a day. I hate this app doesn't let you used number to get codes. Voicemails sucks. Idk why I even continue to use this app.
Hi Alexis, thanks for taking the time to let us this review. As with other phone number systems, it's possible that the number you received was previously used by someone else when you created a TextNow account. I've sent a private message to assist further!
TextNow is HORRIBLE. When we lost contact with friends during COVID and tried to get back in contact with them to see if they are well, alive, etc - TextNow automatically disabled our account and basically told us to "...GO TO HELL..." and wrote that our account could NOT be re-activated under no circumstances. People - GET YOUR OWN CELL PHONES and drop TextNow. TextNow do not care about their users, their rules are stupid AND too restrictive; and their appeal site DO NOT WORK! TextNow also NEVER keep accounts open long enough for people to explain what happened to have their accounts re-activated. TextNow staff are HEARTLESS and EXTREMELY unprofessional. Get a cell phone, people. It will be much easier and much less of a headache dealing with TextNow who delete accounts at will FOR NO REASON AT ALL! TextNow is FANTASTIC and GREAT at telling their customers/users to "...GO TO HELL...!

When I couldn't pay my phone bill and I couldn't figure out where to go to make a call.There are no payphones and I have a phone.Just didn't have the money to activate it.Thank god for text now.
Cant receive verification code, got locked down once for falsely breaking the "terms of use" and all the videos are terrible quality
