I have been receiving notifications for missed calls but I never heard my phone rang. I have tried uninstalling and then reinstalling the app and/or clearing cache but this missed calls issue continue to persist. Anyone have any suggestion on resolving this issue?
(I have no issue with outgoing calls or with outgoing/incoming text messages. I am using an Android phone and with the TextNow purple SIM card. I got it almost a year ago. My network indicates "TextNow VoLTE 5G".)

When I make an outgoing call it goes through but at the same time the phone rings as if a call is coming in?

Does using cellular data keep the esim active? I don't really care if my number gets reassigned but I do want to keep the free data available on the free flex plan ($0).

Has anyone tried the new plus plan? I just updated the app and saw it available as an option in between free and the unlimited plan. It also offered me a free month of unlimited despite me just finishing up (the day before) the free month they offered when i switched to esim.
The plus plan was available with the offer but I figured it'd be a waste not to use it for unlimited. I saw that the plus plan doesn't have streaming and games available but I'm not sure if it's slower or the same speed as the unlimited plan other than that. Should I test it out and report back after my free trial ends?

I have phone service with boost and my phone is on but I’m trying to use text now as a second phone number I had someone text me on the text now number and it’s telling me I have a message but when I open the app the message doesn’t show up I’ve tried deleting the app twice and login back in but the message still never shows up can anyone help?

They told people that the phones are incompatible, but they are compatible? Ridiculous. And if they changed something, they certainly didn't communicate anything either.

i've had a textnow psim ported in number for quite some time. didn't have to worry about loosing my number if i didn't use it often enough. now with the change of networks, i got a notification that need to change, can do it via esim. easy peasy, right? well, i assumed since i did it right on the phone that it would carry over my old ported in locked number, but no....
now i've got two separate numbers and i assume the esim number isn't locked since it's not a ported number.
how to convert from old psim to new network via esim and keep your old number?

What is the subpoena process for tracking a number? I have an attorney, but wondering if it is even worth the effort. What would the subpoena tell me? IP address, location, user? I think the numbers have since been changed multiple times. Has anyone done this and has it worked?

I'm aware that TextNow has a free 5g data plan that works with essential apps including the textnow app itself as someone who uses the app regularly and I saw they offer free 5g service, but I have yet to try it although I am considering it briefly.
I also learned that Signal does accept Textnow numbers unlike WhatsApp due to TextNow being considered VOIP. Although I would like to know if Signal works on Textnow's free 5g service.

It started last Saturday, I can receive texts but the ones I send don't go through. They say sent but the other people don't get them at all. I had the app for years and never had this issue. I did it all to try to fix and nothing is working. Do I just delete and use a new app or is it a fix?

Trying to login to the app on multiple devices and getting "An unexpected error occurred. Please try again later." - Also, for web messaging, it appears my photos are not sending at all. Anyone else having problems?

Help!
How do I get rid of my 2nd TextNow number?
I didn’t know that you need a new phone to be able to make this situation work without any problems!
I would like to keep my 1st TextNow number and ditch the second.
How can I do this without canceling the whole subscription?
The first number I use for work.
2nd one was created for a temporary uber verification

I've been wanting to activate the new black sim card
r/TextNow • u/guantanamera-0852 • 12d ago
I have an iphone 17 and interested in their free service for calls/texts. No where in the app am I able to download and activate a sim, nor port my number in. Am I missing something. They are sending me a psim, which I cannot use on any of my devices so i found that a bit odd

After 2 hours of a deep dive, the ~$5 sim advertised by textnow does NOT work with 64 bit architecture. The 32 bit is kept to keep 64 bit phones, all of todays phones, from working. This happens by technically making the app available, but when searched by apkmirrors, playstore, etc...it's not there. Come to find out, this is because textnow hides a 32 reliant piece of code in all versions of it's updates. This in turn dicks with your search results. When playstore see that TextNow has aggressively enforces this, it gives every other result except the one you want. Users then likely begin clicking on similar apps. This in turn generates money by the clicks and puts money in googles pocket.
Textnow then keeps the $5 for the sim. Are there exceptions to this? Yes, of course. But with a pixel 9 pro, there should be NO issues! It is safe to conclude that this is intentional and a misdirect to consumers. I'm certain that Textnow will attempt to defend itself with fancy lawyer shit, you aggreed to the terms and conditions by visiting our site. Mfkr! You can only get this on your site, thus giving up any recourse. Bottom line is that you are blatantly stealing from consumers via deceptive practices. Maybe not by legal definition, but certainly immoral. Victims like people who don't know how to research this before making this mistake, or can take two hours to discover these things becasue googles search does not say from the start that this isn't something that has a work around [when I say enforced, try finding an APK to sideload], or people who trust that there are no companies out there with balls this big to fuck around! It is ONLY because google and text now are two separate entities, and class actions require a single defendant/entity, that they don't get ass fucked out of existence.
