Textnow doesn't give the option to delete previous text messages. Kinda weird.

For anyone unfamiliar you must use Textnow's app for all your absolutely free calling and texting. Cellular data is sold separately and is never free. You'll need an Android or iOS device to run the Textnow app.

You'll be a given a new phone number when you sign up. If you don't use the service for awhile you lose that phone number. They'll give you another different phone number when you return to using the service. If you want to keep your same number forever without restrictions I beleive there is a one time fee to get that done.

Trying to remember which network the free SIM runs on. Either way if you have an unlocked phone this is a great freebie to use as a backup phone. All the calls and texts are over LTE wireless via the Textnow app. The app has advertisements of course.

So this is like the original freedompop? How intrusive are the ads? And how reliable are the app and service?

and their app comes with lots of ads too, so definitely not an option for everyday use.

for that, i'd recommend google voice

With Google voice you need data or wifi but with this text now sim you need neither to make calls and text, correct?

I think so, according to some reddit research.

Basically with the sim card, you can use the dedicated textnow app to send text and make calls, but that's it though
