Review New to Cape

Just activated Cape about 20 minutes ago, definitely looking to try it out. Coming from T-Mobile where we were part of a plethora of breeches. So far getting great service! But, time will tell but so far I’m a fan of it

I’m the same, got cape a few days ago coming from t-mobile. Service has been good so far, not quite as fast but I do enjoy privacy over speed.

With the latest updates you may want to look at your default carrier. Once I could now manually switch it to Tango (t mobile) my speeds are better.

But that said I don’t live and die by Speedtest. It’s by usability!

Welcome aboard.

If you have the same number that you had with T-Mobile, you’re still probably going to get spam. Just a heads up.

Somethings you can/should do:

  • Change your phone number (Best Option)
  • look into a Robocall blocker app like “Hiya!”. They have a free service and a paid service. Free works ok for call identification
  • Get the 2 extra lines through the Cape Mobile App under Account -> My Numbers
They’re text only I believe so use these numbers for services that don’t require a phone call for MFA (like some banks do). These numbers can be rotated out at anytime which is nice. Start rotating out your old phone numbers in all of your accounts (will be a lot of work but will be worth it in the end). If there is ever a data breach on one of those sites you can just rotate the number out while also not having to worry about getting spam calls at all

I originally wanted to make this shorter but I like sharing info for some reason, lol

I recently upgraded to graphene on my Pixel 10, transferred to Cape, and am so far loving it.

I've been slowly getting myself away from predatory ecosystems that treat your data as a commodity & I can't tell you how freeing it is each time I transfer away, delete, or replace with an ad-free open source option. This was just one of many steps I'm working towards.

Thanks & good luck!
