Nextplus: Private Phone Number
Nextplus is a communication app that allows users to stay connected with people around the world without sharing their real phone number. It provides a free US phone number, allowing friends to call and text, with the option to choose the area code. Users can send free text messages to any US or Canadian mobile number, as well as enjoy free inbound phone calls. Additionally, Nextplus offers toll-free calling from anywhere in the world without restrictions. The app works well over WiFi, eliminating the need for a 3G/4G connection. There are no contracts or surprise costs associated with the service. Nextplus also allows users to turn their iPod touch into a phone.
Unlike other app-to-app messengers, Nextplus enables users to call and text any phone number. The app is compatible with all devices, ensuring users never miss a message. WiFi is the only requirement, as no 3G/4G connection is necessary.
To cover the fees charged by friend's phone companies for message and call delivery, Nextplus offers the option to view banner ads or watch short videos. Users may also choose to pay a small fee to remove these ads. Subscription plans are available, including options such as keeping the phone number for one year, removing banner ads for one month or one year, and unlimited ad-free calls to Mexico or the US and Canada for varying durations.
When subscribing to a plan, users will be charged according to their selected plan. Payment is processed through iTunes, and the subscription automatically renews unless turned off at least 24 hours before the current period ends. Manage subscriptions and auto-renewal settings are accessible through iTunes Account Settings. It is important to note that Nextplus does not support 911 emergency services in the US. Outbound phone calls may require the purchase of credits within the app, and push notifications need to be enabled to ensure message and call reception.
