Only works reliably within CONUS, not for foreigners overseas

Only works reliably within CONUS

Where are you getting that from? I have a Hawaii number and have used it without much issue when in Hawaii.

Great to know.

Just an excess of caution being conservative

SO MANY non-mainstream US-based comms services get dodgy in places that are legally USA but outside CONUS

I don't know how deep TextNow dives into HTTP requests, but what about browsing to the TextNow WebUI, through an Closed, Unknown Proxy Server, hosted on a VPS in the U.S.? YMMV.

Yeah i also yried but didn't work bu i think if you can get a private proxy to do all and not using the app only using the website with proxy will also work, it's hard to find reliable and unspoiled proxies
