EnglishHow to Get a Number with text+
Updated
text+ gives you a private second number (or your first) for free unlimited texting and affordable international calling, per the site's own description. To get a number, you generally need to install the text+ app and register an account inside it — the number is issued through the app rather than through a web signup form. The exact steps below reflect what the site states about its service; specific menu names and number-selection options are not documented in the available page evidence, so treat those details as things to confirm inside the app.
What you need before you start
- A phone or device that can install the text+ app.
- A way to register an account (the app handles this during setup).
- Nothing else is confirmed by the site description — no pricing, region list, or ID requirements are stated in the available material.
The general process
- Install the text+ app on your device. The service is app-based; the website itself is described as a redirect, so the number is obtained through the application.
- Open the app and register. Account creation happens as part of getting your number.
- Receive your number. text+ assigns you a number to use for texting and calling. The site markets it as "your private second number. Or your first."
- Start using it. Free unlimited texting and international calling (described as affordable, not free) become available on that number.
What the site confirms vs. what it doesn't
| Question | What's supported |
|---|---|
| Do I need the app? | Yes — the service is app-based |
| Do I need an account? | Yes — registration is part of setup |
| Can I pick my own number? | Not stated in available evidence |
| Can I choose a region/country? | Not stated in available evidence |
| Is it free? | Free unlimited texting is stated; a "Premium" tier exists, so some features are paid |
Free vs. Premium
The site links to a Premium page, which means a paid tier exists alongside the free offering. The available evidence does not list what Premium includes or what it costs, so check the Premium page in the app or on the site before assuming any feature is free. The free tier is described as including unlimited texting.
Common sticking points
- Expecting a web signup. Because the site is a redirect, you won't get a number from the homepage — go through the app.
- Assuming everything is free. "Premium" is referenced, so verify which features sit behind it.
- Assuming you can choose your number or area code. The site doesn't state this, so don't count on it until you see it in the app.
If your goal is simply a working second number for texting, install the app, register, and use the number it issues. If you need a specific area code or number, confirm that option exists inside the app before committing.
