Text Free: Second Phone Number

What the second number is for

TextFree gives an Android phone a second number that lives inside the app. The number is a dialable U.S. or Canadian line with its own area code, so people can call or text it like any ordinary number. The listing names three main uses: keeping a second number for privacy, separating personal and work contacts, and handing out a number for online marketplaces, job searches and dating apps so the real one stays out of view.
