TextNow is an app to create a virtual telephone number to call and send texts from – and completely free of charge. All you have to do is create a user account.
Once you create a user account, TextNow offers a series of phone numbers to choose from. From that moment on, you can use this number to send text messages and make phone calls to other numbers within the Americas.
While the app doesn't let you call European phones, you can still install the app and get a US phone number. You can even send unlimited text and picture messages.
The best thing about TextNow is that it's free. You start out with a set number of free minutes, but you can get more for free at any time by watching ads or installing sponsored apps.
TextNow is a really powerful communication app that lets you send messages and make phone calls. And best of all, you can do it all from a virtual number.
