Description
Been using Text Free: Second Call Number for a couple months now. It’s basically an app that gives you a free second phone number you can use for texting and calling. Pretty solid if you’re looking to separate your personal and work life or just want an extra number for privacy.
Here’s what you do – you can get a new phone number through the app, then use that number to make calls and send texts. There’s also a cool feature where you can forward calls from your second number to your regular number. And the app has group messaging, which is handy for staying in touch with friends and family. Took me a while to figure some of it out, but overall it does the job.
Look, if you need a second number for whatever reason, you’ll probably like this app. It’s not perfect – the ads can get a little annoying if you don’t pay – but it’s free to use and gets the basics right. Worth checking out if you’re in the market for a free texting and calling app.
Editor Opinion
So here's my honest take on Text Free: Second Call Number. I've tested a bunch of second number apps and this one's pretty solid. The free number feature works well and it's easy to use for calls and texts. And the interface is clean and it hasn't glitched out on me. Only real downside is the ads, but you can pay to remove them. Overall, it's a reliable app that does what it promises without any major headaches. If you need a second line, this is a good free option worth trying.

After you download and familiarize, the app forces you to rate it with 👍🏼👎🏼. After that, it's downhill - App is slow to open and navigate. Way too many ads....
It was good in the beginning ... quick set up, easy to use, and free. After a while, it got difficult. Locking, freezing, and consistent dropped calls. My final straw...
I've been using this app for years, and ive watched it go downhill over time to the point where I am uninstalling it. It is so crippled by advertising. Banners...
