## Description

Ring4 provides a private second phone number for texting and calling, ideal for separating personal life from business or online selling. It supports multiple lines with local area codes and uses Wi‑Fi/VoIP so you don’t burn your main mobile minutes. Numbers for the US, Canada, and the UK are available, with optional eSIM data support. 

Privacy matters: keep your real number hidden, receive 2FA codes, and manage who can reach you. Features include call recording, voicemail, video links for listings, easy line replacement, and transparent pricing with a 7‑day trial and ongoing credits for texts, calls, and video meetings. Inbound texts and calls are free; you can delete a line anytime if needed (911 may not be supported).

While a few users express positive sentiment like “Great app” and “Nice,” the dominant themes are allegations of scam or deceptive terms, refunds not being honored with unresponsive support, non-functional service after purchase (inability to text/call), and recurring account issues (login/sign-up problems).
