## Review summary

Overall sentiment is mixed. A minority of users praise Line2 as an affordable second number for business use and note long-term reliability for some applications. However many reviews highlight chronic issues: SMS deliverability across major carriers, poor call quality and dropped connections, abrupt account cancellations or flagging without clear explanations, unhelpful or slow customer support, and unclear pricing and terms. Some feature gaps and occasional porting delays also appear. The app can be valuable for some, but reliability, support, and transparency are persistent concerns.

### Pros

- Provides a second phone number / business line that some users rely on when their primary carrier blocks personal lines.
- Viewed as good value for money and affordable for a business line.
- Long-term users have found it useful for business needs and have stayed with it for years.
- It can be used as an emergency or backup line for some users.
- Some reviewers report years of satisfactory use for business communications.

### Cons

- SMS delivery issues across carriers; messages from Line2 often not delivered to Spectrum/Verizon recipients.
- Calls can be staticky and drop or cut out after a few minutes.
- Accounts are sometimes canceled or flagged without clear notice or a transparent explanation.
- Customer support is frequently unhelpful or slow, with troubleshooting suggestions that shift responsibility to the user or carriers.
- Pricing and terms are not clearly disclosed in the App Store, leading to unexpected charges or confusion about monthly fees.
