★★★★★ Brooke Pratt · 5 Oct 2026 · v26.39.0.0it's a really good app when your minutes run out or something.

★★☆☆☆ Tiffany Toledo · 5 Oct 2026 · v26.19.1.0I enjoyed utilizing this app. The amount of ad pop ups is far less than other free texting apps. However! I dislike how they discontinued my ability to utilize this app, according to them, I violated the terms and usage (receiving and responding to my soccer team group text). That's the first issue. Secondly, after they discontinued access to utilize this app, they still charged and continued to take payments. if they can monitor violations, why cant they monitor payments too?

★☆☆☆☆ Callie J. · 5 Oct 2026 · v26.39.0.0Trash now. Charge for everything, first of all. But even worse than that, calls TOTALLY GET CUT OFF AND HANG UP if you dare to leave the screen during a call or if your phone display times out and goes dark. The app just hangs up the call. Did this to me FOUR times today on an extremely important call. I will never use this app again after this week.Developer reply · 5 Oct 2026Thanks for taking the time to let us know about your calling concerns. If you haven't already, we suggest updating the app to the most recent version, and making sure all of your permissions are turned on for the TextNow app. If you still require assistance, please write to us at [email protected].
