Text Me - Phone Call + Texting 4+

Its great but a few fixes

I have a twin sister that lives in a different state then me, she has a real phone while i have a iPod. I didn't have a phone number until i got this app, it works for other apps sometimes when it says phone number, U CAN ACTUALLY USE THE PHONE NUMBER FOR CLARIFICATION ON DIFFERENT APPS! I was excited about this until it got logged out of my account. And if i told all of my friends that i got a new phone number every other week then that would just be weird. So if you were to get this I would recommend remembering your password or buying your phone number, but i think you have to pay for it every month. There are also A LOT of ads, every single time you text someone you have a ad pop up, every single time you call someone there is a video ad. And if you want to go ad free then you have to pay for it, EVER WEEK. Or if you pay more then its ever month. If you don't want to to deal with all of this then i would recommend getting a different app. Overall of these bad stuff I think its a pretty good app.
Ps. It wont let u send text messages to people that only have emails.

Thank you so much for your review :)

This app was good but now garbage / updated review

The app worked great when first purchased but when I restored my subscription and paid Apple everything was fine and received premium features other than advertisements that clogged the app making it unusable. I clicked “restore purchases “ but that button in the app did not work. I clicked purchase monthly premium button but was stopped by Apple saying you already purchased this premium service.

I worked with Apple support on the issue this app was having in restoring the purchase. The problem was a complicated issue where my old TextMe account was deleted since I had discontinue the service earlier. When I clicked the restore purchase there wasn’t a TextMe account to restore to. This was not to fault of the TextMe team or Apple. What I need to do was wait now until the restore time-out which will be a couple of weeks, make sure this old purchase is cancelled, then log out the Apple Media account, reboot my iPhone and log back in. Then I can purchase a new TextMe account (do use the old one) and complete the purchase. This issue is not related to the TextMe app or Apple. It is just one of the got you things that can happen to a complex system.

The TextMe team was good in responding and providing support!!

Taking my money monthly but can’t use it due to pop up

I am a monthly subscriber unable to use the app as every time I open it, a pop up asking me to select a new US or Canadian number blocks using any further part of the app. I do not want to choose another number as I finally did this before to get rid of the pop ups and I was hounded with unsolicited calls. I have been in conversation with their customer service for months over this and asked them to refund me for the months I have been unable to use the app due to this issue. They told me I had to go to Apple to get a refund as it’s an apple
Subscription. They then claimed it was the device (an up to date iPhone less than a year old!), but I have since changed devices and the problem persists, so that excuse isn’t working for them anymore. They also told me to delete the app and download their sister site FreeTone, but this will cost me $1.99 and there is no way I am giving this company a cent further when they are charging me every month but the app is unusable.
Also, before I subscribed, my number would periodically disappear, even though I had paid to keep my number, which is why I ended up subscribing and why I am still trying to resolve this, as changing my number will be very difficult. When I subscribed, that’s when the pop ups came and the app became non functioning for me. Absolutely useless.
