TextNow provides their users coverage in a unique way. Rather than purchasing a plan online or in a store, TextNow customers need only download an app to access nationwide calling and texting!
This plan features nationwide calling and texting, but the free version comes with advertisements. If you purchase a TextNow SIM card, calling and texting are unlimited.
This plan does not have high speed data.
This is a no contract cell phone plan.
TextNow was founded in 2009 and it’s a bit different than most of the wireless carriers you’re probably familiar with. Most wireless carriers provide cell service by connecting your cell phone to their network of cell towers. On the other hand, TextNow brands themselves as the “world’s first cloud-based” wireless carrier.
TextNow uses a combination of Wi-Fi and cellular to provide cell service. Their cloud-based technology is more cost-efficient, and TextNow passes those savings onto you. Furthermore, the Wi-Fi component of the network means you can still have great service in areas that may not be covered by cellular.
You can also easily connect all of your devices to your TextNow plan. There’s a free TextNow app that you can install on your smartphone, Mac, or Windows computer.
Don’t worry, you can still get LTE data on a TextNow plan! If you’re not connected to Wi-Fi, your phone can use cellular data on the Sprint (CDMA) or T-Mobile (GSM) wireless network. Additionally, if your phone is connected to a CDMA network, you also set up your phone as a mobile hotspot.
