Leave a Review Talkatone
Garbage I would vote 0 stars if there was 😡
At first I loved this app it was fine but like 4-5 months later it went down hill.
One day I’m doing what ever and I want to text my friend witch this app is good because you can text people without a apple device and people around the world but here is when it went down hill ok so I was doing what ever and I go to pick up my phone. To remind you I never logged out of this app so I pick up my phone and i start texting my friend then all the sudden it won’t send.. my phone turns black then goes where you sign in and I never did anything so I swiped my apps out and let it go but every time I texted someone for about 2-6 minutes it would say ( you have been logged out please sign back in) I never pressed any thing to sign out all I wanted was to text my Friend and others so now here’s the part we’re this app is disappointing so it happen for the rest of the day then I’m like ok I’m done so I tried to logg in with my number or email and it says Please check your internet and clearly I’m on the internet! So now please fix it or I’m done because this app is a disappointment to the App Store. Now there is no way to text my friend and other people I know that doesn’t have a apple phone SO THANK YOU FOR RUINING THIS.Show lesskona_v
Great app - I’ve been using w/same # for years
Everyone knows my Talkatone number as a good and dependable second/backup way to reach me. I recently lost my cell phone while out walking and because of COVID-19 lockdown needed to order a new one online. Having Talkatone on my iPad, I quickly shot out a text message letting everyone know to call or text me on my Talkatone number until I could receive my replacement cell phone three days later... it was the first time I had to rely on Talkatone as my main contact number and the app worked flawlessly! Thank you Talkatone, you allowed me to keep in contact easily with everyone in my life during this crazy pandemic. Sincerely, Lynne B.Show lessLynneB56
Best Free Text/Calling App
This is by far the best free app I have used. The pandemic has left me jobless, my phone and internet turned off, and recently my car taken. You could say it’s been rough for my husband and I. This app has allowed me to at least have contact with the outside world again when I’m able to acquire free WiFi or at a friends house. The interface is very easy to use and clean. The adds are in no way disruptive which is totally amazing compared to the other apps. The best feature by far is the FREE calling. I don’t have to buy minutes- and right now I’m struggling to even feed my self so having a tool that is free for me to use has been a blessing. Thank you Talkatone for everything you do!Show less32degreezeelee1208
Calls not coming through
Everything was working great at first and now I’m not getting any calls coming through unless the app is open. Still using iPhone but it only rings if I’m sitting with the app open. Extremely frustrating since I subscribed to keep the number which doesn’t ring, call forwarding which doesn’t work when I forwarded it. Went from a 5 star to 1 I’m afraid. I’m going back to using skype. No help from customer serviceShow lessnikkimoe78

Read this because you won’t find out until after you sign up
The pricing is disappointing as is the privacy issues.
First off- privacy. This app does not allow you to manage separate contacts within the app. To use contacts you are required to give them access to your contacts which are then completely uploaded to their servers. This is unacceptable and there is no reason that a company needs to acquire your entire phone book. It also prevents you from easily separating your contacts depending on which phone number you want to use. This app used to have separate contacts on your phone in the app but they disabled it so they can take your personal information.
The app has ads and to remove them is only $1.99/mo. However purchasing a full monthly subscription for $4.99 does not remove the ads. Paying customers are still presented ads and a bar on the screen you can’t dismiss telling you to pay to remove the ads.
So you pay $4.99 per month for the service, then $1.99 in addition to that to remove ads. This is ridiculous. A paying customer shouldn’t have to pay a 40% increase in monthly charges when they are already paying.
Immediately cancelled subscription and wasted my money.Show lessnoonesboy
I have made Talkatone my primary number.
I give my review after a couple of years of using Talkatone. Overall it’s been great. I can use it with talk, text, pictures, emoji, gifs. Everything associated with phone use. No hesitation no echo. The only downfall I’ve came across is lost connection. This can be a issue when trying to place a call in time sensitive matter. Although most times it will reconnect quicker when closing and reopening app. Biggest downfall NO EMERGENCY CALLS for first response. Leaving me to still carry my cell phone. Oh did I mention, I have an iPad Pro. I carry it with me everywhere also. Would love to only have one device to keep up with. Thanks for your services they are well appreciated.Show lessReese❤️✌️🙏
Ticked all the boxes of what I needed
This app was recommended by a friend after I complain being frustrated having used 10 diff apps that either lied about their services. I was skeptical initially but after 2 month plus now I can say this is the best. No issues at all and will recommend it.udota
Solid
I use WIFI in one location a lot and I don't chat or talk when outside. Although, free app do not give up your SIM or SMS. I can not say how well it works when using SMS or SIMS from the major cell phone services outside. TALKATONE is perfect in home when everyone wants to use the land line phone. I can talk for a long time on my smartphone using WIFI & Talkatone. can make calls, rec’v calls for free. They have a reminder system that warns you to make a call before the assigned phone number is loss. In other words you must make a call every 30 days ,if not the account is closed. It happened once, then ,they offered another phone number and I have had it for years. I am going to try the low monthly service that guaranties never losing my number, + voice mail.Show lessNature-Africa
I think it’s a bug but...?
The app does its job very well, I’ve usually been able to call and text with little effort. However, the last few days I haven’t been able to access my contacts or my text messages (it shows the previous text, but not the name of the contact/their number)
I presume this is a simple glitch that they’ll fix quickly, since with that exclusion, it’s a very good app. It has ads, but they aren’t really annoying or excessive, which I like.
But yeah, just want to rate an app for once and will definitely change it too 5 stars whenever the glitch is fixed (or whenever it stops affecting me who knows lol)Show lessUniversal Composition
