Textfree

Overall it's cool to use you get a free local number to reach out

PROS

If I cant afford to pay my phone bill that month. That I have an option to use this app and call and text anyone for free

CONS

That you have to play games or watch videos just to get credit once you run out of free minutes. I dont always have time

Text ME on TextFree!

PROS

One of my most favorite features is simply the sign-in process because once I create my account I can officially use that log in information to use on pretty much every single one of my devices. It's definitely less stress trying to find numbers and zero hassle with trying to find contacts that I use for TextFree itself; just give the app access to what it needs to fully operate and VOILA!

CONS

The ads are NO JOKE; I feel like it creates a bit of a buffer when trying to open and close TextFree and while texting and receiving texts.

Reason for choosing TextFree

It's "new" as far as I'm concerned.

Reasons for switching to TextFree

I had to pay for this app after 7 days; while still having to view ads in order to use the service plus getting occasional suggestions for survey's as to the quality of the service. I wouldn't mind doing the any of the above IF the service was FREE in exchange for all of our (the customer's) efforts.

No support & Big Unresolved Bug in App

TextFree App keeps, during calls forcing the speakerphone on and I have been trying to reach out to them for a year now and they never respond. I tried all the trouble shooting possible on my end and nothing works. I can lay my phone on the table with out even touching it and the speaker phone turns on and off causing my ears to burst with pain. Contacting Samsung next but I really think it has to do with the developer of the app and maybe google....

PROS

Makes calls just fine but sometimes I do not hear it ring on incoming calls.

My TextFree Experience

I love using this app, if my phone ever is cut off, I always use this software as a backup number just in case, it’s free & easy to use, very beginner friendly, you can’t go wrong with it honestly

PROS

I love how it’s a free mobile number to use at any time, the minutes are cheap to purchase or they might let you watch free ads for free minutes

CONS

I don’t like how the number expires from inactivity, if it were a lifetime number I can keep then it’d be perfect but you still get a free mobile number which is still a plus
