TextNow Customer Insights

1. But incoming is not at all! Please fix this issue! I rely on my service for work and home.Breaks up, drops, and makes it hard to talk to people on calls or stay connected, but will give you an ad that works perfectly fine after.

2. I've used it for a decade and although it can be unreliable at times, the free service is great for those who can't afford a cell plan and just need talk and text.My experience while using this application has been pretty decent.

3. Just not worth it unless you pay for it, and at that point you mine as well get an actual phone plan.The most recent version has some bugs - when I click a chat head, it either disappears completely, or lets me type a little then closes and my text is gone.

4. I don't even know if my calls are going through.Very glitchy takes 5-10 minutes just to send a message.

5. No matter if it was on wifi or mobile data.For a free texting and calling app, it's pretty damned good.

6. It is the only, actual, FREE call/text app that I have been able to find that is exactly as it claims while also functioning almost as well as a carrier service that you would have to pay for.

7. If you get a phone service from anywhere else you don't have to pay extra for verification codes 🤦🏼 ♀️ 2.

8. T.Y.!It says you get unlimited 2G data when you run out of high speed data but the last 3 times I ran out, it cuts my service off completely.

9. I no longer get notifications on incoming calls or texts.

10. 30% of calls don't connect at all; 20% of the calls that do connect, drop immediately or within seconds; and 20% of the calls that don't drop have audio issues.

11. Also really frustrating trying to make a call having to restart the app multiple times because their pop up ad's freeze the app, not to add already having to watch ad's to get minutes to call in the first place.
