About

2ndLine is an app that gives you a second phone number with free calling and messaging, available on Android. 2ndLine uses your Data or WiFi connection to provide your phone with an additional line. Just download the app, pick a phone number, and immediately access unlimited calling and texting from an additional line on your phone. 2ndLine uses your device's existing internet connection to text and call numbers in the US and Canada. The person you're contacting doesn't need to be a 2ndLine customer in order to receive your texts and calls or send you a text or call. When you first sign up for 2ndLine, we'll ask you to enter an area code from the US or Canada, and let you select a number from an available pool of numbers in that area code. Please note that 2ndLine only has numbers within the US and Canada. If we don't have any numbers available in your area code at the time you sign up, we'll let you select a number in the area code closest to you.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Easy to download Easy to sign up Nice color palette Fast typing I can use on my Android phone
  • I got excited on the few days the service did work... But that was not going to last very long because it does not work reliably.
  • Does work sometimes but most times cuts off in mid call. When I contacted them, they made the excuse that it was my internet, but I have Verizon Internet with 300 Mbps, which is more than enough! Sometimes it works fine and sometimes it don't.

Cons

  • Poor calling connection Too many ads Bad customer service Can't refund my money Slow response rate. No explanation regarding issue
  • The service does not reliably work. It does not text the way you think it will! If you send it a text, it will send you back a garbled link from a spammy other number your callers will not recognize. They will not allow you to port your number. The service is unreliable and support doesn't care.
  • Calls constantly drop off, hard to reclaim codes, they are LAZY OR INCOMPETENT and don't want to update the app to fix bugs. App is way overrated.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • I like text now at first because I could finally call my country and receive text messages to my phone while away. I started using this phone number to get people to reach me while in a foreign country I use it in my email signature I use it on my business card I used it on my website but then...
  • Was great before the company introduced all the pay walls. Now a barely serviceable extra line. Does not drop the majority of calls.

Cons

  • After a couple of weeks of using text now one morning the app was no longer connected to my account and I could no longer retrieve my phone number. So out of despair because I needed to make a phone call in my country I decided to just create a new account thinking that I would have to change all the phone numbers everywhere where I had a written the old text now phone number... And again I lost access to that number a second time and it is this time text now banned me. And I would have had to fight for my number and I talk to myself to the heck with that! I'm done with TextNow I'll never use it again.
  • App selectively does not ring or alert you to texts (even after applying company prescribed fixes). Have to pay to get access codes, or they are willfully blocked. The price is ridiculous. Ads everywhere for you to accidentally click on. App pirates your phone after some texts, and makes you watch a full commercial, in the middle of your conversation. Solution is to close the app, and reboot it. Loading time is slow. Can you imagine if you were in trouble?! I actually paid to have my number reserved for a few months, and found out that it is a separate charge to get access codes, despite it not being advertised that way.
