Hi Andy, that was an awesome video! I’m a student and had no idea you could do this. My service just got cut off and I can’t get it back on until next month, but this has been a lifesaver. I’m in the middle of midterms and need my phone to stay in touch with my classmates.
Thanks for the helpful information on answering my thoughts on what to do with with SE . No need to save for PureTalk, Xfinity, Century Link or ma bell but still make calls with an apple with WiFi as a Preservative.
My phone doesn't have a plan. I don't think my text messages are not going through and I can't call. Is there a way that I can still text snd call with out the plan?
Questions would be why need ringing alerts if only would work on wifi, well I have a phone now that data only is working ( I think is government connectivity program ) so I want to use a app instead of paying full price for what I don't need. Or just pay less for this app service which does the same thing ...
You mentioned something about spending a few bucks and running on the Sprint network. But you never demonstrated that. This is the point that I wanted to learn about in your video.
I'm attempting this RIGHT now, today --with an iPhone 5S, so far it's working. Actually TextNow RUNS on the Sprint LTE network, at NO cost to you, NO WiFI needed to Call & Text!! This IS STILL a VOIP, so it's confusing, but via the Sprint LTE they are connecting you to the Sprint WiFi (I think,) & the service is paid via ADS shown in your Text or Call inbox. I believe there are UP GRADES, should you become bothered by all the ads, I think? Again, just setting this up myself.
Not free i tested it yesteday yes free call free sms free number etc..but they said you need to lock your number and to lock the number you need to pay or you loose it .i am not free to call and text every day to keep it free and expansive to lock it the same price to have sim card for minimum use . i already have sim number and all family with data i was looking for a voip free phone extra to call for free when i travel i didn t find a serious voip free
I had a problem with each, google voice - need a carrier based /non VoIP phone number to verify. So not perfect. With textnow or talkatone etc. Caller on landline or mobile is unable to leave voicemail. Anyone else have a solution for "no carrier Wifi full phone service?
Hmmmmm. Good question. What if you bought a pre paid number to open the Google voice account. It might be a 1 time fee, but then you would be all set. I haven't tried it, but it sounds like it would work.
how the hell did it take you 13 minutes to recommend people to download a single app? all your other rabbling is useless information. cmon man, pay your editor better.
Do anybody want to give you love peace and happiness and joy and happiness and joy and happiness and joy and happiness and joy and happiness and salvation and eternal life if u confess your sins repeat after me Jesus christ I recognize that I'm a sinner I want you to forgive me for my sin and write my name in the book of life in the name of the father the son in the holy spirit amen pray to keep the connection with God fasting to let all the desire of the flesh die reading the Bible because God talk to us different ways and form by reading the Bible and going to church because the word of God comes from hearing it u do this four and the holy spirit will do the rest
Thanks for this. I've been wanting a second line for unimportant stuff. I can't believe how good this works!
I just used this method, and made a call on a locked android, Motorola phone, and it worked. Big Thanks. Keep up the excellent work.
WOW! I never even thought of using it that way! Great find and thanks for sharing that!

@@Bunnie148 I'm glad I could help! Good luck on your midterms!
It's not free, you still have to put credit on to make calls
Thank you! My service just ended and I knew there had to be a way to use wifi only!
Thank you for the kind words! Glad I could help!
3:20 to begin the FRIGGIN POINT OF THE VIDEO & bypass his jibberjabber about phones hes owned & yadayadayada!
Thanks
Did you actually write "jibberjabber"?? What is a 85 year old doing on TH-cam? You should be napping...
@@jamievsjamie8377can you fight? Or want me to f u up
my kids don't call me anymore when they visit their friends. they think they're all grown up just because theyre in their 40s
Thanks for the helpful information on answering my thoughts on what to do with with SE . No need to save for PureTalk, Xfinity, Century Link or ma bell but still make calls with an apple with WiFi as a Preservative.
Great Video. Watched everything on 2x times speed lol.
LOL, Thanks for the view and that comment. My wife listens to me on 2x also.... 😂
Less rambling, more content
I ran it at 1.5x speed and was still thinking the same thing..
Install 'text now' ... That's all I got after watching the whole video... 😐
Amen
My phone doesn't have a plan. I don't think my text messages are not going through and I can't call. Is there a way that I can still text snd call with out the plan?
Excellent video. Very helpful information and it worked. The video deserved, and just got, another "Like." Thanks!
Thank you so much for the kind words and the LIKE. I really appreciate it.
My phone does not have Wi-Fi calling and I'm in the mountains where I have a very bad or no signal can I use this to at least text or
What about recieving calls and texts ?
thank you for helpfull video. only i wondered if it works for calling Canada .
you have to pay the phone bill wether ya use it or not
Looking for app with this, plus ring alerts for calls received and also a answering machine service with it
Questions would be why need ringing alerts if only would work on wifi, well I have a phone now that data only is working ( I think is government connectivity program ) so I want to use a app instead of paying full price for what I don't need. Or just pay less for this app service which does the same thing ...
Thanks dude. It worked!
Would this work on a laptop without a phone?
Great question! To clarify, are you asking if you could take the sim card out of a phone and put it in a laptop that is 4g compatible?
Nice little trick, thanks.....
Thanks for the comment! Sometimes you just need a way to communicate! 😃
Is this any different from WhatsApp?
Thanks for the content👍
I have a new phone the Samsung note s10+ will it work??
Does it normally show for samsung a10s
I haven't tried it yet. I wish I did before I bought a temp back up straight talk phone. Republic wireless sucks now.
I'm not able to receive texting or call businesses and receive texts codes to confirm a verification So what do I need to do???
Hmmm, I'd check the settings. I've never had that problem. You do have to be sure you are connected to WiFi.
Free but a fee isn't free really is it?
Great video. Thanks👍
Thank you for the kind words!
You only addressed half of the problem. How do you RECEIVE calls over Wifi?
Great question! Just have somebody call or text your new number.
Mine came back with Text Me first, not Textnow. Does that work too?
Thank you for this information
You are very welcome. It's my pleasure.
Will this work in Mexico
?

Will it call international?
One, it works. However I couldn’t get an area code I wanted.
Can I get away with prank calls doing this
Great Question! Unfortunately, the answer is no...🙂

As usual, not available in the UK!
That stinks!
Thank you it Worked
I called my husband. Thank you I subscribed 😊
i use google voice
Way longer of a video than needed lol you could sum this whole video up in 4 minutes 🤣
The video couldve been much shorter .
You should also put the links of the apps youre using in the video in your youtube video description .
Thanks for the feedback!
Dont you have something better to complain about?
@@anjanean They are valid points...unlike yours.
would be great if the app actually worked. Wont send a text and the voice call quality is extremely poor
This only works in the USA or Canada... any Apps for World wide use?
All you had to say was down load text now
Great info
Why 1-5G can't be used without help of towers?
Can this method do Facetime??????
Great question! The answer is no. Facetime is separate from phone service. It is a video service offered by Apple exclusively.
Bro thank you for thissss
I downloaded but it says I need a simcard! I have already paid for a number!☹️
I think he mentioned that, and said pick "skip" for that part.
Im in a different country but messenger and facebook works here
I need this for my tablet.
You can do it as long as you are on wifi!
Can you face time also

This app is not available in my country.
thank you for the information.
My pleasure!
Too many "without further ado's" that didn't. I switched off after 3 minutes 10 seconds
Sorry about that. I made a note of it. 😉
I have no idea what your doing and i cant see what your doing barely hear what your doing
I love Text now wireless they are the best FREE provider out there in the USA as of now awesome video by the way
My phone is 6 years old.
Google voice is requiring me to attach a working phone number
Yes. GV does require that. Once you put in a number, they will text you a verification but that will be the last time they contact you on that number.
Thankyou
Iy doesn't show
Great advise .. thanks .. ill try it
You should have reviewed this video before you put it on TH-cam. It is wildly brutal. It is tough to watch.
So many safety issues.
I couldn't make a call. It kept connecting me to some kind of sales offer.
I'm not sure what you did wrong. I would go back through the steps and see if you set something up different.
Thank you. it worked.
You can also just use something like messenger and call and text strictly from wifi with no data or service needed
It does not work
Interesting. I have not had any problems.
'for free', for a small fee.. ???
Unable to get pass "no numbers available"
I not sure what you are referring to.
Too LONG WINDED and your repeat yourself too many times.... GET TO THE POINT!!
I'll try to do better next time. Thanks for the feedback!
how the hell did it take you 13 minutes to recommend people to download a single app? all your other rabbling is useless information. cmon man, pay your editor better.
Thank you for the input. I will try to be more brief in the future so as not to waste your time.
Thanks 🙏 please keep smiling it is great 👍 for tax my ? Is how to turn tablet to iPhone I will check your other video .
FREE calls for a VERY SMALL FEE LOL
But that being said good video mate
It doesent work :(
Not sure what you mean. Maybe watch the tutorial again and try again? Thank you for the feedback.
Just had to say download TextNow smh
13 minutes to install Text Now 😂😂😂
Thank you for sharing that info
Let's be honest tho who still uses 3g phones
Good luck
