Pin bug

wadting my time on

United States

Have been satisfied overall. However, after last update I’m shut out of app because does not recognize my PIN. Help!

Stopped working after 3 days

ill J on

United States

Was using this for text messaging when it randomly stopped working then locked me out with no way to log back in. Lost all of my text messages. Could not log back in with Apple ID and a message just appeared saying to contact customer support. Customer support was no help and said my account was banned but didn’t offer any reason why.

Deaf People Are Forgotten

YouSuxV on

United States

This app needs to work with Innocaptions so people with disabilities such as d/Deaf people can use a burner phone too.

Don’t waste your money

bis212 on

United States

Update: still radio silence from customer support. Not only does this app not work, they don’t respond to questions when you ask for for help. And my previous review was removed? Really?

They will sell your info ins heartbeat

SDV_SDV on

United States

Also doesn’t work for Gmail account registration with verified phone number (extra $10 on top of premium). The app is basically a scam now

I have been using the app for about a week or so and I have a small issue,

Benzo-advocate_141 on

United States

I’d initially installed the app based on the sheer amount of traffic that was coming in to my primary number and I like that the app is able to allow only a select few people/contacts to be able to access permissions for without having to request permission for the entire contacts list. Outbound calls on the secondary number sounds very good in general, although I’ve yet to actually have a conversation so I can’t speak for the audio quality. I have ran into a couple of issues that I hope would be resolved hopefully, I’m not receiving any push notifications when I receive both inbound calls and texts from the other party. I’ve got all my notifications toggled on for the app in my settings, but haven’t received a single call until I received a silent missed call notification, sometimes hours after the call. Could you please address this issue or can you direct me to how it is supposed to work? Would I receive inbound calls just as if I were receiving a call from the native phone app or do I have to have it constantly running in the background? I have cellular enabled as well. Overall I’m fairly pleased with this app and I would give it five stars if able to address this issue. Thank you!

Unbelievably poor customer service and invasive policies.

A_Greg on

United States

Be advised, your messages are not private using this app. Not even close.

Everything I need and almost as good as I can imagine

MMrecommended on

United States

I’ve been using this app for close to a year now and I find it very easy to use. It allows me to manage four different numbers on one phone. The only thing I would improve is the search functions, as I have at times found it a bit difficult to locate my conversations with infrequent callers.

Very Deceptive Scam

HonestCritic184 on

United States

I signed up for what was supposed to be a 7 free trial, but was instantly billed $59.99 for a years subscription. Hoping for a refund.

Picture messaging doesn’t work.

Dave.B2014 on

United States

The title says it all. You can only receive picture messages. You can’t send them. I’ve done their “fixes” and still can’t send pictures. I wanted to use this app to sell things. Defeats the purpose if I can’t even send an image to the buyer.
