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 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 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 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?

No. You do not need to submit a government-issued ID to sign up for TextFree. To create an account, you'll need to verify your email address or sign in using a supported Google or Apple account.

Ratings and reviews

It's a great app. But, every person I talk to says they can't hear me very well and they say it always sounds like static when I talk. I've tried it on Android and iPhone and it's the same. Both phones get hot when calling out or receiving a call. Sometimes during a call, the audio cuts out at intervals, on, off, on, off, on. I can hear parts of what they're saying. that also happens on both Android and iPhone.

There are entirely WAY too many ads in this app starting WELL after installation, to the point where each click you make, an ad pops up. I'd be checking your server/platform for some form of malware or breach, unless you're intentionally putting in that many ads. Along with the fact that when you're trying to make a call, it either forcibly hangs it up or randomly puts it on speaker after starting the call, without the option the turn off the speaker. Idk, there's something phishy going on.

Messages not sending... Been using this app for years. The ads have gotten worse. Used to just be the ones at the bottom. Now you get the pop ups every time you wanna change who you talk to. Also, messages are not being received by people. Full bars, 5g, no reason for the issue on my end, but multiple people are not getting the messages...
