Improved service and better call quality
It is not bad for what it is We use the free service for our elderly neighbor who did not have a cell We had a 5-ish-year-old Android phone that was just a paperweight in our house and we activated it with the 1 sim from the text now I also activated one of my old iphones just to have a backup phone in my workbag I purchased the year-long phone number lock for 5 a year I later noticed on my iPhone that it costs about 5 a WEEK to have that service so probably not worth it For a basically free service I really don t think it is a bad deal but there are some things to note -Set up isn t difficult but does take some time I have activated 2 phones on this service and I would say it took me about 30 mins each time to do so -While you can pick your phone number from a group of available numbers your phone number is NOT LOCKED in unless you pay for an upgrade They say that you have to call or text once a day to keep from losing your numbers but in practice it is more like one every 3-4 weeks and they send you a reminder text that you need to use your account you can even log into the app on your personal or primary phone and text from there to keep it active For these reasons TextNow is probably not a great business phone solution Maybe go with Tello as a cheap paid service or google voice is you have a phone number you can text from and link -Texting and Calling is through the TextNow App NOT the default phone text of calling apps -There are ads in the App but they do not bother me or my neighbor Data is NOT included and I believe starts at 10 a month This service is best used for someone who can use wifi to access the internet and just needs to talk and text otherwise -After using both in my opinion I think it works better with my old Android that my old iPhone Overall I think this is a fine service that is probably getting a bad rep just because people do not understand what it is going in I would rate it 85 100 but I am rounding up to give them some love as their service is great for my neighbor who needed it I hope this helps

HAPPY 8 YEAR CUSTOMER
Well in the past 2 or 3 years ago I tried textnow cellphone services and I must admit call quality was horrible most of the time over wifi or cellular data then on may of 2018 I tried again TextNow knowing they are a VoIP cellular company with an older phone I had for my surprise this time call quality seems to be great maybe when switching from wifi to data while in a call could be a little degradation in quality but in my case I use most of the time data minutes and call quality is impressive since they use sprint I think they redirect the call thru sprint real time minutes also over a good strong wifi calls are good as expected I think TextNow improved their services for good also they are selling simcards to use their services thru att or T-Mobile I think this is another great plus also the plans are very reliable and convenient starting at 9 99 for unlimited talk and text in my opinion the only company that gives that price for only taking and texting for people like me that does not need data in my opinion a good choice for people in a budged but at the same time getting a good and improved quality service just remember to be sure if using your own hanset or a TextNow one be sure you have a good sprint coverage and when using a simcard choose which the better coverage for you T-Mobile or att keep going textnow

Text now is a good app just don t go
I am using two textnow numbers One is premium and the other is not I wanted to switch one number non-premium to other provider I want to keep the premium with textnow When I contact the customer care about porting I am told that new provider has to send them an email asking my account and pin which is very unlikely they would The other service provider said that its me who should get it from TextNow Its pity that TextNow is asking me to run around Its simple they have my details and they should give it to me New Post Thanks for the support Got my Account number and Pin Waiting for the port out
