Clocking/crashing
iPhone 16 Pro - app crashed and now is clocking when I purchased a 1 month subscription.
I’ve used this app for years with zero issues.
Love!
Works just as promised even on free, so smooth.
Very good app!
I love it, but I’m not getting any notifications for texts or badges.
Edit: Notifications work! Love it.

I was logged out of this account in a few MI urea after creating it

Good Concept Hindered by Clumsy App and Slow Service
App ruins this service. It’s slow, clumsy to use, and plagued with crashes that don’t really give you trust in the reliability of the service. I just went back to GV.
None of the settings work in the most recent version 6.23.0.2315
Latest version setting feels broken. Tapping any of the settings options doesn’t do anything.
Not free
It’s only a free trial with signing up for monthly fees. That does not make it free and should be disclosed. I would pay for something if I was given notice. Can not accept the sneaky free apps that charge after downloading without telling you!
New update is terrible
I’ve been using this app for about a year now and it’s been fine. I love the pay monthly for unlimited texts. However, the new update has way too many bugs. The app lags and even the keyboard keys are slow to type. Please look into debugging it. Also it’s very hard to scroll back through the old texts I get to a certain point and it resets. And please think about adding a feature that always to view shared media like messenger or Instagram
Not worth the $
This app DOES NOT provide notifications despite the apps settings and after double checking my phones notification settings I still cannot understand why this is. On top of this, I somehow got enrolled in 2 phone line subscriptions yet had to have both in order to use a single line. One more thing to note is there’s no getting a number or messages back after being late on a payment or deciding to come back after a while
Sluggish app and no fix in sight
I’ve had my Burner line for years and it gets the basic job done, but ever since the last major update (a redesign of the whole UI) the interface becomes more and more sluggish the longer the app is open, which requires a force close and re-open to alleviate. I contacted support about this and they said it was a known issue and advised a reinstall. I did that and it didn’t help. It it would be one thing if they were active trying to fix it but it’s been over six months now and no change. Tbh, I
FaceTime Type Capability Needed
I use this for on-line dating. It would be great if we could do video calls (similar to FaceTime).
Consider adding that capability please.
