What is Reddit's opinion of Text Free & Call Free?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

Well yes, I think it is. Isn't this it? However, all the one-star reviews should be an indicator that maybe it isn't working as well as it ought. And, even if unavailable from Google Play, there are plenty of places to source an APK for it.

My FP Messaging app was still working yesterday morning before I uninstalled it and hammered the SIM cards into the pavement. :))

Oh I didn't know about the new account management app. I was talking about the other messaging app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.freedompop.ott

Good point.

I thought they were referring to the PF Messaging App.

CallFree & Text Free app has not received very good recent reviews:

OTT is the non-SIM based free calling app, i assume you got that plan thru this app right? (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.freedompop.ott&hl=en) if so, you have a OTT/non-sim plan/service. it wont harm you as you can have lots of devices on your account.

You can get a free unique phone number just using the "FreedomPop OTT Call and Text" app, no need to get/run a FP device or SIM:

This is known issue. I am not sure that it is a bug, it looks like FP is doing it "by design".

If you use your phone only for data, you do not need FP Messaging App.

​

If you need also voice calls (but not SMS/text messages),

See my post from here: https://www.howardforums.com/showthread.php/1912238-FreedomPop-solution-for-excessive-data-usage-of-FP-Messaging-App-(Android)

-------------------------------------------------------------

Assuming you insist to use FreedomPop for voice calls (for example, because of integration with native dialer) and do not want to use alternate solution like Google Voice, the solution to the problem is following:

​

1. Forbid background data usage for Freedompop Messaging App in settings.

​

1. Stop FP Messaging App ("Force Stop" or "Disable" in phone settings). You will not need this app anymore for voice calls, but you may need it for text messages or if you want to see your account status/data usage. In this case, open app and kill it again. This app consumes cellular data (a lot of data) even if the phone connected via wi-fi

​

1. Obtain your SIP credentials. See

https://www.howardforums.com/showthread.php/1909213-How-to-Freedompop-number-with-freepbx-asterisk?highlight=SIP+freedompop

​

​

If you can not root your phone, you can take any rooted phone (no SIM card required, wi-fi connectivity is OK), to install this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.freedompop.ott

​

This is very similar to FP Messaging App, but it works on non-freedompop phones.

​

1. After you get your Freedompop SIP credentials, buy Android/IPhone version of Acrobits Softphone ($6). This SIP softphone supports push notification by importing SIP credentials to Acrobits servers.

​

If you do not need inbound calls, you can use free softphones like Zoiper or CSipSimple instead of Acrobits and you are done here.

​

1. If you need inbound calls, configure new account on Acrobits Soft Phone using FP SIP credentials and set push notification in configuration. At this point you will be able to place and receive phone calls using your FP account and phone number.

​

Note: SMS will not work with Acrobits/Zoiper/CSipSimple.

All above softphones can be integrated with native dialer and contacts.

I was about to make a reply to a quibi post because of a similar "disruption" comment only to find the FP "about" now 404s. XD

Is someone there watching these comments or maybe they're screwing up more internally.
