Burner’s got a new look! Not only that, but the features were improved to make life easier for you (we got you!).
We’ve rebranded & updated everything from the logo to the app interface, but we’re still the market-leading second phone number app that allows you to have multiple numbers for multiple reasons.
We arm you with the texting, calling, and organizational tools you need to manage the various aspects of your busy life. We’re a second phone number app, sure, but at our core we’re just trying to help you navigate this wild, weird world in the easiest, safest way possible.
HOW BURNER WORKS
Burner is the only app that provides you with total control over your communications boundaries by providing multiple phone numbers with settings for life, play, and more. However, it’s so much more than just a second phone number app for calling & texting. You’re able to do so much more than text now…
Burner allows you to use your phone with unlimited anonymous numbers. This means that you can enjoy multiple phone numbers with unlimited calling, texting, and possibilities while keeping your personal number private.
Use Burner to:
Maintain your privacy & keep your number safe
Organize your social circles
Protect your anonymity
Communicate freely with spam blocking & muting
Set boundaries with do-not-disturb settings
Attain inbox bliss with enhanced organizational features
Call and text now with immediate, unlimited calling & texting
Privacy features abound, but we’ve also enhanced our organizational features so that you’re able to incorporate Burner into your everyday life, whether you're a privacy maven, love online dating, or simply just need multiple numbers for multiple life passions. With Burner, you can set boundaries with spam call blocking, do-not-disturb settings, and more to ensure that you’re always in control of your communications.
Burner is free to download and free to try. Get a free 7-day trial and a real second line to try with our enhanced privacy, spam-blocking, and communication features. Additional numbers are available through subscription, making it easy to add more lines whenever you need them.
BEST IN CLASS
We’re not here to brag (okay, maybe a little), but we’ve been featured as a TIME Magazine Top 50 App and we’ve appeared in The New York Times, WIRED, TechCrunch, Engadget, and more.
Why do they all love us so much? You can download the app to see for yourself, but we’ve been recognized for excellence and innovation (and the fact that we offer real numbers, not fake phone numbers or second lines that only work for a week).
Burner is the most reliable and fully featured virtual phone number app available, boasting premium calling & texting features that include blocking, muting, and do-not-disturb settings plus the ability to easily switch lines when needed. After all, life is complicated enough. Your phone doesn’t have to be.

What's New in Burner
6.1.0
December 5, 2024
6.1.0 includes a fix for static gif images and a streamlined new call/texting flow for single line users.
The only reason I gave 5 stars was because had I not then u probably wouldn’t be reading this. They don’t put critical reviews at the top. Anyway I needed a very temporary phone number so I decided to go with Burner Phone seeing that they had a 7 day trial”free trial”. As soon as I downloaded the app my debit card was changed a little under $11. I didn’t use Burner phone at all because I wanted my money back. So I emailed them to explain. Emails went back and forth between me and Burner phone for a few days. Then finally I decided to go to Apple with my problem. Later that day I received an email from Burner suggesting that I contact Apple so maybe this will help u skip the several days of back and forth emails with Burner and just go straight to Apple. Anyway Apple approved the refund BUT I still haven’t received my refund because Burner is supposed to issue it. I get that the cheapest way for them to refund my money would be the longest but when they took it, it was instantly. So why wouldn’t I receive the same ?? I’ve asked Burner this but they have yet to reply. I can’t help but feel that I’ve been burned

Response from developer
Hi there, thanks for your review! Burner does not have access to Apple's
payment system, so only Apple can approve and provide the refund.
