### 2/5 — New update broke app

*2026-05-26, version 4.0.7*

Voicemail to text no longer works. That was a useful feature. Now there’s nothing! 

This company is going backwards, not forwards. Very stupid app reverse development.

### 3/5 — Dialing

*2024-11-13, version 2.30.0*

Been a FreedomVoice customer for 12 years. But now when I type the phone number the 8th digit of the number gets swapped for the 7th number and I can’t make any outbound phone calls because the keypad enters the phone number incorrectly and I can’t copy paste the phone number I want to dial. Please fix this bug. I need to dial out!

### 1/5 — Sad

*2024-10-12, version 2.29.5*

Why is this app not being updated adequately? Y’all are lucky this service is cheap.🤬

### 2/5 — Unreliable

*2024-09-06, version 2.28.2*

I would love to read and respond to actual text message unfortunately there is a horrible delay for 5-7 or longer before you can read or call someone. App needs a complete upgrade.

### 1/5 — Worst app EVERRRRRRR

*2024-08-05, version 2.28.2*

I would think after Godaddy acquired this “company” they would have put ANY EFFORT AT ALL WHATSOEVER into this app but they don’t even fix normal bare bones minimummmmmmm functions! It’s free to download so u be the judge. Literally can’t b a more poorly designed app on the planet ever created that is worse than this app. it’s as if a five year old created it. Seriously!

### 2/5 — A Hassle to deal with

*2024-06-26, version 2.28.2*

The phone service itself is great however, the app is horrible. it constantly crashes and won’t allow me to update client. I’ve deleted the app and reinstalled it and nothing seems to work.

### 1/5 — App won't make outgoing calls

*2024-06-26, version 2.28.2*

Incoming calls work; they are to my personal phone, then go to Freedom Voice message if I don't pickup. BUT I can't make an outgoing call, after dialing the number in the app, a box with a different, unknown number and Call or Cancel options pops up and there is no way to make the outgoing call.

Tech support tried their best but couldn't solve it, nor did they have any means to escalate it.

Don't buy this program!

### 1/5 — SCAMMERS

*2024-04-28, version 2.28.2*

I asked them to cancel my membership 3 months ago and have still been getting billed.
They are scamming me knowingly 

NEVER DOWNLOAD THIS APP

### 1/5 — Not great

*2024-03-09, version 2.28.2*

I’ve had this app for 2 years and I wish I didn’t select this for my business.  When using the app to send texts, it’s takes a very long while to load.  Have to constantly try to restart for it to work.  This has been a consistent problem.  This is the same for using other features like calling out and reviewing call logs.  No updates have been made since I purchased the app.  Thumbs down for me, it lags too much!

### 1/5 — Don’t waste your time

*2024-02-18, version 2.28.2*

My main reason for getting this service was so my clients can text me and the mobile app is pure garbage, my calls drop, the app crashes, my messages won’t load. It’s unusable.

### 1/5 — Shame on You FreedomVoice & GoDaddy

*2023-12-10, version 2.25.0*

If I could give this app zero stars I would. Having been a FreedomVoice customer for almost 15 years, I’ve watched a steady decline in customer service and service reliability in general. Now you’ve offshored all your support and u can’t even get a digital resolution when I create a help ticket. Telling me to call your call center to fix this app after I’ve sent emails detailing the “broken” issues is ridiculous. I have a business to run, and don’t get paid to sit for hours on the phone with your shoddy tech support. If I ask by email, answer by email! And, get my contacts synced!!!

### 1/5 — Bad app

*2023-11-11, version 2.25.0*

Can you guys make this app better please. I'm paying for a service that t don't use that frequently but when I do use it, my calls don't register on the app. Queen I text certain key words like zelle or cash app, my message never go through. When I miss a call I have to go to the web to check my call log and they don't always register. I mean this is entirely too much. I've invested too much money into advertising my business with this number to switch it but I might just take the lost

### 1/5 — Can’t delete text messages

*2023-10-31, version 2.24.0*

Extremely basic features are not even available. When you call customer support it is all overseas and these 20 something year old kids do not care about our issues with the app. They are great at taking our money monthly but they are not providing any additional new feature to the app for years. Apple should not even allow this to be in there App Store.

### 2/5 — App doesn’t work well

*2023-10-14, version 2.24.0*

Always a problem with the app. Since Go Daddy purchased them it’s been nothing but issues. Have had Freedom Voice for over 20 years- gone downhill each year rather than getting better. Can’t understand why they can’t get their app working properly. Phone system works well though so I’m not bashing them entirely. You need to get your app working properly and stop lying making excuses each year.

### 1/5 — Customer for years

*2023-06-20*

Literally the worlds worst app ever created. Nothing works. Nothing. Download and try. You will see. Calling cust support tells me you can only retrieve simple things like your call log and missed calls if your signed into a desktop computer. Never seen an app update in the years since I’ve had it. Godaddy took this company over and has not done one tiny thing to make this service work. It’s sad. I am also a long time customer of Godaddy’s services which are usually good and well taken care of so they should be very embarrassed of the freedom voice service… most especially this app!

### 1/5 — Trash

*2023-03-23, version 2.17.0*

FreedomVoice is a good company to have as far as getting a phone number for your business but this app is trash. It never works. It always says error and right now I have literally been trying to sign in for the past six hours.

### 1/5 — scam

*2026-05-27, version 4.0.7*

this app never worked. I wander if the service is actually legit at this point. 3 months in and I’m not able to make calls

### 1/5 — Still doesn’t work

*2026-03-20, version 2.32.9*

I don’t know what they’re doing but the app, to place business calls OUT does NOT work. “Internal server error”.  It worked one day and never again.  At least incoming calls reach me without issue but that doesn’t use the app. 

Please fix this app already!

### 1/5 — No text

*2026-03-02, version 2.32.9*

Texting has been turned off. Wish you could at least say STOP because texts are still coming in.

### 1/5 — Cant make calls

*2026-02-10, version 2.32.9*

Keep getting recording to check app settings or check caller ID.  The app does not have setting to go to and caller ID is correct but still cannot make calls.  Useless app.

### 1/5 — Text never works

*2026-02-08, version 2.32.9*

This app has sucked for yes. I can’t text out again.

### 1/5 — App failure

*2025-11-24, version 2.32.4*

Calls do not come through on the app. It comes through directly through my phone which means when I miss a call I can’t tell who called

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work at all

*2025-09-02, version 2.32.4*

Downloaded the app. Entered username and password and just get a blank screen. Repeated attempts; same result. Garbage app.

### 1/5 — Fix the App

*2025-08-27, version 2.32.4*

I’ve been with this business since 2018, and they have a lousy app that makes me login again all the time. Won’t respond to my trouble tickets. Customer care doesn’t care and are equally bad. If I could give a zero, I would. I also can’t get or send texts without a bunch of garbage that I don’t have to give them.

### 1/5 — Pick any other option

*2024-12-16, version 2.31.3*

Terrible useless customer service. The only service like this where you can’t register a local number to use. Garbage!

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2024-11-04, version 2.30.0*

Just updated. There’s nothing on the app. It’s blank. Plus the app didnt work before. Would send text. Had no callee info 
Crashed all the time.

### 5/5 — Business

*2020-06-14, version 2.1.0*

Love that you can pick your own phone number and forward calls to different employees. Works well for my small business.

### 5/5 — Great job!

*2019-09-22, version 2.0.2*

Finally, I had requested some feature and security improvements to the application about 6 months ago. They have finally delivered! I’m very excited, now I think the application is just as good as its competitors, if not better!

I like being able to send text messages thru the alternate phone number. Some people just respond faster that way. The 3 way calling is good too! Overall

### 5/5 — Works Great

*2019-08-17, version 1.0.32*

I’ve been using this App for 2 years now. It’s bare bones but does the job. Some of the complaints I read in the reviews can be fixed in the settings online or if you allow notifications in your phone settings. I prefer the desktop phone but this app is excellent for on the go. I only wish that you could have more than one number operating through the app as I have more than one number through FreedomVoice.

Customer service has always been exceptional to me and when I’ve mentioned it on the phone the staff raves about the company and have been there for years so I’m not sure what the high turnover comment was over but I have only had good experiences even when I’ve had issues that needed to be fixed.

### 5/5 — Great App!!

*2018-03-04, version 1.0.32*

I love this app!! Thanks FV I no longer have to block my number when calling customers I could just call from my 800 number so awesome :))

### 5/5 — Great

*2017-10-13, version 1.0.32*

I have been with Freedom Voice for almost 4 years and never had a problem it’s easy fast and simple I see some have problems did you ever think it’s not Freedoms fault but maybe users just don’t know and need to figure it out I get calls and everything never a problem making calls thank you Freedom for a wonderful app

### 5/5 — This app is awesome!

*2016-05-05, version 1.0.32*

No more having a call paused when you get a call to your main mobile number.  Other service providers who do not use this same type of technology within there app are getting left behind. My company has been using FV for over 8 years now.

### 4/5 — Made a call using the FreedomVoice app

*2025-06-30*

Despite what the other reviews say it does work. You do have to enable caller ID. You do have to use your own cell number and it will use the caller ID of the number you have with FreedomVoice.
Would like to be able to delete texts received

### 4/5 — Great job!

*2023-06-05, version 2.20.4*

I really like the text feature, but don’t want to keep texts forever. Can you creat a way to clear old text messages?  Thank you!

### 3/5 — Texts Received

*2025-04-10, version 2.32.4*

Just block them. Cannot reply to stop and they continue to come
