Reviews for Talkatone: Texting & Calling

I have used Talkatone for around 4 years, I’ve used they’re service recently intermittently for a short period of time this year. Normally, I would try to write a positive review, something that in of itself would show my satisfaction for the act. However, giving someone less than 12 hours of notice about the phone […]

I paid for Talkatone Plus to make calls, but the service has been very disappointing. Calls often don’t ring on the other party’s phone, or when they do connect, there’s no audio on either side. Out of 20 attempts, only one call was successful. These issues make the app unreliable and frustrating to use. I […]

Call quality is good, and outbound calls work well, but inbound calls usually drop before connecting due to the lag between the push notification of a call and the app connecting to answer. Also, about half the text messages I sent were not received by the recipients. I tried to work with support, but they […]

I got a message that I’d lost my number, despite the fact that I was using it. So I went ahead and picked a new number, as I had no choice. Not even a week later I get a new message stating I will lose that number. I contacted support and got some generic reply […]

I’m not going to say this app is good. Just OK. Barely tolerable. If I had just started using the app more recently, like in the past 4-5 months, I would have probably given a 5-star review because it works perfectly fine now. Thing is, I’ve actually had this app for over 2 years, and […]

This has to be the worst text/ calling app available. I’ve done the free version and the paid and it doesn’t matter. You constantly have to wait for it to ” connect to server,” which sometimes it never does. While waiting you can’t call or text but it has no problem displaying adds. It also […]

Used this app for years on Android and iOS with no issues what so ever. Started using the premium on my Android a few months back. Well, it worked great for about two months, then it just quit receiving any calls or messages all together, but I can send and make calls just fine. I […]

The app crashes a lot. Phone calls do not seem to last longer than a couple of minutes. It seems to be noise sensitive, meaning if you speak softly you will continue to have the problem of disconnecting. When I stretch my vocal cords and speak louder it doesn’t disconnect. Sometimes the other party will […]

Connecting…tap to restart connection. This is the message I constantly get when trying to use this app and it’s infuriating. It doesn’t matter if I have a full, high speed signal on wifi or cellular, I still get that message and cannot call or text until the connection is established. Sometimes it takes a few […]

I “thought” it was ok. So I paid for the premium so I could receive automated delivery texts and more perks supposedly. You only get 580 character/spaces for your text. I would like to see it go up to 1000 or at least add an additional 200 characters to the implemented 580. They don’t. Perhaps […]

It’s one of the best phone apps, I’ve been using it for years! Not a lot of ads. The price for premium is reasonable. I’d say, it’s best for texting because the call quality is sometimes sketchy if you don’t ideal WiFi & at times it’s hard to answer on some devices but they’re always […]

This app is okay! I was able to make and receive calls, It would keep losing connection on the wifi. Now, I can’t make or receive any calls and no texting. If I were on an important call, I had to call back several times because of losing connection, I had to repeat everything all […]

Recommend- YES! Ads are typically noninvasive on the screen. Occasionally an ad will cover the whole screen, but can exit it. I have the free version. Most incoming texts don’t sound off and have to restart to even see that I have one. If there’s a limit on texts or calls I’ve not reached it […]

I have been using talkatone for over 2 years and for the most part it works fine. I have issues with some things but I just deal with it. But… the main issue I have is when I’m texting someone and it’s a long text, the app just resets. Not only do I lose the […]

So I emailed support as instructed, and they were no help at all. They answer, but the answer has absolutely nothing to do with the issue. Since my first review of “terrible”, it’s gotten twice as bad. Now I get an advertisement notification every minute. Plus, all of my texts no longer have a name, […]

the app used to work very well now. Every time I try to call, it rings one time and hangs up on anybody it won’t even allow to call to go through, even with Wi-Fi connected. I have an Android. I’m not sure why the app just stopped working it used to make phone calls. […]

This app works very good, cleat phone calls and excellent MMS messages, you can choice you free USA number. The bad think is that it had very much ads and it bother too much to me, I have to pay a monthly fee for free ads. I give 5 starts because the phone calls and […]

This worked well enough for me for years, and I even bought some of their in-app credits. But then I had to reinstall the app recently and was met with “This app version can’t complete a security check” and couldn’t sign in. When the usual troubleshooting steps didn’t work, I reached out to customer support […]

Oct. 2025 now I can’t use this app. I’m logged out and receive an error message when I try to sign in. calls drop randomly, . I have had several people say they didn’t receive text messages or phone calls even when it sent on my end. Also it doesn’t always call out but it […]

since the app was updated I can no longer log in! I’ve been a paying subscriber for 2 years and now I’ve lost the ability to use the number or even log in! UPDATE: I did contact support and they don’t help. claim I did something, (what they can’t say) to make me FLAGGED! all […]
