FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Is TextFree really free?
Yes—your number, texting, and calling are all free. TextFree is ad-supported, which is how we're able to offer it at no cost, but if you'd rather go ad-free (and get more features), TextFree Plus has you covered.

Does TextFree give you a real phone number?
A TextFree number is a real, dialable U.S. or Canadian phone number with its own area code. It runs over Wi-Fi or data rather than a traditional carrier plan, but works just like one for everyday texting and calling.

Does TextFree work without a phone plan?
Yes. TextFree runs on Wi-Fi or mobile data—no carrier required. As long as you have an internet connection, you're good to go.

Is TextFree private and secure?
TextFree doesn't sell or share your personal information with third parties, and we never use your messages to train AI models. For full details, see our privacy policy.

Who is TextFree for?
TextFree is for anyone who needs a real phone number without the cost or commitment of a carrier plan—and anyone who wants a second number for side hustles, online marketplaces, or anywhere they'd rather not share their real digits.

I keep getting "Request failed with error 7063" when attempting to create a TextFree account. In spite of what they say on their support pages, I did not attempt to create multiple accounts, nor have I been accessing the service from outside the US or Canada, nor have I been using a non-official app store, nor have I tampered with my device (it isn't rooted). Bottom line, it doesn't work at all. Uninstalling.

Hey Arnaud, we understand how frustrating this can be. If you believe you have been wrongfully restricted from creating an account, please reach out to us with the exact email address you used to sign up for TextFree at reviews@pinger.com. We'll investigate this further from there.

Absolutely frustrating. This used to be my go-to app for things like sketchy Craigslist contacts, etc. and anywhere I needed a phone number but didn't want to get registered and marketed to. I was willing to put up with the constant requests for $$, to reserve my number. But now they're requiring real email, which absolutely defeats the entire reason for this app- anonymous messaging. it's like the developers made the conscious decision to not allow their users to protect themselves anymore.

DON'T UPDATE!!🚨 The latest update removed the ability to receive VERIFICATION CODES via Phone Calls, when you are under the "non-Plus" version. Throw the app away. It is not Free Talk & Text. It's Free calls & Free text from "certain" entities. A Text is a "TEXT". I even tried to buy the $9.99 monthly plan and you keep showing me error when I tried to pay via Credit Card and Play Store. This app is a scam. It fails at every turn. It's a bait & switch.
