IS IT REALLY FREE?
Yep, send free texts from an iPod touch or iPhone to any US mobile phone. Replies come free too! The Lite version has ads, and a daily message limit (15 a day for now--hey it’s free!). Textfree Unlimited (paid version) has no daily limits.
WHAT MAKES TEXTFREE SO SPECIAL?
- Highest-rated, fastest & most reliable texting app
- Get notified of texts when you’re not in the app*
- Unique texting address to give to friends
- Forward texts to other friends
- Switch to iPhone “classic” tone and look
- Roomy horizontal keyboard
- Supports nearly all US carriers (see pinger.com)
- 18 playful emoticons to express yourself
* Indicates feature requires OS 3.0 or higher
CAN I RECEIVE TEXTS FREE TOO?
Yes, choose a unique username@textfree.us, then friends can text directly to your iPod touch (or iPhone). This serves as your unique address with Textfree--no mobile number required to get texts!
SHOULD I UPGRADE TO UNLIMITED?
If you’re a heavy texter, Textfree Unlimited might be right for you. It does away with the daily message limits. Plus, you get a ton more text tones and fun conversation screen themes and you can assign different ones to each friend.
DOES IT WORK ON IPOD TOUCH?
Sure, just make sure you’re on WiFi and then you can even exchange messages without a phone!
REALLY IMPORTANT STUFF
- Your friends not on Textfree pay regular charges for texts sent and received--nothing extra.
- If your friend’s phone can’t send texts to an email, have them try using the MMS or picture messaging app. Regular carrier rates apply.
