Review summary

User reviews praise call quality, affordability, and international usability, and note that the app can forward a home landline to a mobile device. However, there are recurring issues with reliability (missed or ringing sometimes not), login/activation problems, unreliable SMS, and occasional glitches. The service is highly dependent on a stable internet connection, and while opinions on support vary, many users report improvements over time alongside ongoing reliability concerns.

Pros

Clear and crisp call quality when connected to stable internet
Very good value for money with a low annual fee
Works internationally and while traveling, expanding usability
Conveniently lets you answer a home number on a mobile device
Long-term reliability with improvements over the years

Cons

Unreliable call delivery: missed calls, rings not heard, or calls dropping
Login and activation problems: difficulties signing in, account activation/renewal issues, and permission-related sign-in blocks
SMS and texting are unreliable or flaky
Occasional app glitches and performance issues such as low volume
Service depends on internet connectivity; wifi outages render the service unusable

2026-06-22	Ra*****	very convenient for those who need it as a full-time day-to-day phone line and those like me that needed in a pinch the use of a phone line on the quick but a bing but a bang and you're up and running. cautionary note that's on the caller ID on the call e number will show up as spam so I'm going to look into changing it to my name to show up instead of spam showing up to the one I'm calling. That's why I didn't give it five stars but if it is an option to add my name as what shows up on their ca

2026-06-22	Mi*****	Not reliable. I constantly miss and drop calls. Most of the time they do not forward to my mobile and I won't always get notifications for voicemail. It was the primary line for my business. Now the past 6 months or so it's been so unreliable that I can't use it for anything.

2026-06-20	Ge*****	I can't even register my new magician. the app only has options for purchasing monthly plans, even though It comes with a 12 month subscription. it also said it's not allowed on United States devices. Huh? waste of money and time. don't even bother with this thing.
