### 1/5 — Can not login

*2026-03-02, version 2.0.3*

As others have mentioned I keep getting the same message keyword not supported. I have also sent a email message to the developer, and I have not heard anything from them regarding this issue,so basically the app sucks along with the developer for bad customer support

### 1/5 — App still not showing data balance

*2026-02-24, version 2.0.3*

Ive had this app for a very long time and I check it everyday to check my data balance and for some reason for the past couple of weeks the balance isn’t showing up at all and I refresh the app and I delete it then re download the app and still nothing

### 1/5 — It won’t let me login

*2026-02-23, version 2.0.3*

I keep getting a text message saying “keyword not supported “

### 1/5 — Needs to be updated

*2026-02-22, version 2.0.3*

The six digit pin for log in wont send to my phone so i cant even manage my account settings on the app.

### 2/5 — Quality is lacking

*2026-02-10, version 2.0.3*

Hardly ever shows data, never really loads, a waste of phone storage really.

### 1/5 — App doesn’t work

*2026-01-23, version 2.0.3*

The app doesn’t work you can’t do ANYTHING on it I tried to buy more data on the app it won’t let me I have free offers that I’m not able to get I can’t even contact support on the app it crazy that they even tell you download it ….. weird

### 3/5 — Useless for most things

*2025-11-10, version 1.0.6 (40)*

When your on a low bar plan don’t expect much, the app only tells your current data remaining once a day which is ridiculous. you should be able to refresh or reopen the app and get the current update data remaining. been standard with cellular companies since smart phones were a thing. no excuse why this app can’t do that. 

lastly, there should be a security section where you can set up a account pin rather then having to call like most cellular companies let you in there apps. 

please fix these issues.,

### 1/5 — Update.

*2025-11-01, version 1.0.6 (40)*

This app desperately needs an update; it's far too buggy and annoying!!!

### 1/5 — Completely Broken

*2025-09-28, version 1.0.6 (40)*

Revised rating: App used to indicate my plan info. Then the plan data numbers never changed, and now the app is just a plain white screen. 

This app is embarrassingly bad. Idk who they paid to do it but it was a grift. It’s just a wrapper with basic line info, and every button you click takes you to a website. 

Furthermore, there ARE ADS IN THIS cellular plan app. 

Trash.

### 1/5 — Area support

*2025-09-22, version 1.0.6 (40)*

Just wondering why my area is not supported yet it clearly states that NC is supported. Please make it clear as to why my area in NC has no support.

### 1/5 — Freezes when launched

*2025-08-02, version 1.0.6 (40)*

FIX IT!…. CONSOLIDATED BALANCES IS NOT WORKING BALANCE KEEPS REVOLVING NOTHIN IS RETRIEVED THANK YOU!!

### 1/5 — “Submitted and resubmitted and resubmitted!!!”

*2025-03-29, version 1.0.6 (40)*

“Document Proof Rejected.” I submitted exactly what they asked!!! Three Goddamn times in fact!!! Social Security letter of benefits. Page one! ! ! I don’t know what these AI reCAPTCHA Robots do NOT comprehend about The English Language? ? ? Had I paid them, I’d have gladly shelled out processing fees to Prosecute them myself in Small Claims Court! ! !”

### 1/5 — Application

*2025-03-19, version 1.0.5 (39)*

The site does not work properly I have tried now several times and I never get the code. It states your code has been sent. But it never appears in my mail. I called the numbers for technical support and that is a waste of time

### 1/5 — Deaton

*2025-03-16, version 1.0.5 (39)*

This and all the other government phone services are worthless you get unlimited data but at a speed that’s so slow you can’t use it your browser will time out and this service is suppose to be for emergency and you can’t even get hold support to complain it’s just fast enough to track someone get what I mean

### 1/5 — Frustrating

*2025-01-14, version 1.0.5 (39)*

Keeps signing me out. Every link I tap to use in app is not usable and there is a security warning in which I cannot access site. They really need to update its not that hard.

### 1/5 — Don’t bother

*2024-09-08, version 1.0.3*

This app is associated with the Tracfone, which is the worst cell phone company that exists. In the several months that I have had a Tracfone. It has caused  me so much stress that I am going to file a complaint against Tracfone with the Better Business Bureau and I urge every single person who has had a Tracfone to also file a complaint with the Better Business Bureau.

### 1/5 — Stole my money!!!

*2024-08-21, version 1.0.3*

Do not try to buy an upgrade on this app they will take ur money n never send u the phone u paid for!! So I’m out $86.39 cuz for some reason when I hit the payment button the last page never loaded to give me an order number,tracking number or confirmation number!! I call n they say they can see where I paid them 86.39 but can’t see nothing I ordered  n I’ve ask for a refund but have yet to receive it!!! I mean u would think that would be enough for them to see I never got anything for my money to return it or send me the stupid phone I ordered either one is fine with me!!! I have a feeling I’ll never get my money back!! If I do I’ll update this review!!!!

### 1/5 — List/stolen phone

*2024-07-29, version 1.0.3*

I either lost or my phone was stolen! I called Customer Service and reported it list/stolen. I had to go to the website and report it that way! How? I was sent a passcode that I could not retrieve! I tried canceling my subscription from Track phone and according to them, the account was cancelled but I got no confirmation!

### 1/5 — Worthless

*2026-07-18, version 2.1.4*

I lost my phone. I’m trying to log into my account from my other phone that I’m using. And it just wants to send a verification to my lost phone! That’s ridiculous after it asked me for my name and address in last four Social

### 1/5 — Doesn’t load

*2026-07-01, version 2.1.4*

It never shows me how much data I have left

### 1/5 — Keyword not supported

*2026-06-19, version 2.1.3*

Used to be just okay as an app. Now it’s completely useless.

### 1/5 — The app

*2026-05-28, version 2.0.3*

The app itself needs a lot of work half the time it doesn’t even open , or it takes forever to load anything IF YOU GET IN . Also the data with this company is insane but hey it’s free so ig we’re not supposed to complain 🤷🏾‍♀️

### 1/5 — Needs to be fixed

*2026-05-27, version 2.0.3*

In the beginning it let me logged in check my account. Somehow after they updated it doesn’t work anymore. Please fix it.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2026-05-24, version 2.0.3*

Same experience as another reviewer - after being sent a link from Safelink to download it, as a new customer, I did so. Should have checked the reviews first and saved myself a wasted hour trying to log in. Kept trying to get a pin; kept getting messages saying "keyword not supported" instead of a pin number. Tried the ' help' option - AI response completely useless. I Kept explaining, in different ways, but it couldn't understand. Finally it insisted the pin number must be there, I just needed to keep looking for it! Decided I don't need the app. The phone works, the app doesn't, customer service? Don't make me laugh.

### 1/5 — Company’s a scam

*2026-04-21, version 2.0.3*

They advertise for CA residents as “You receive 25g data AND 10g hot spot data” but don’t be fooled. You don’t receive 10g hotspot on top of your 25 monthly. It’s clickbait and a total scam to get people to sign up with their company. What they really mean is “you’ll receive 25g of monthly data. Feel free to use 10 of those G’s as a hotspot”.

I spoke with NUMEROUS diff reps before transferring to this company and I asked each one of them the same questions about the data and they all insisted on telling me that I’d be receive 10g ON TOP of my 25 regular monthly gs. I can’t believe this kind of stuff is legal, honestly. I instantly regretted transferring to this .. another scam of a company.

### 1/5 — What is going on here?

*2026-04-17, version 2.0.3*

Update:  since the review below, now it won’t even let me log in.

It’s supposed to text me a PIN, but instead I just receive the message:

“ Keyword is not supported.  Please reply HELP to see a list of supported messages.”

original review:
———————————————-

iOS 15 This app comes across as some kind of phishing attempt lol. Supposed to show balances, but just shows a blank page. Any nerdy high school kid can code better than this. Owned by one of the wealthiest entities on the planet (Verizon). double lol

### 5/5 — Life Saver

*2026-06-09, version 2.1.2*

SafeLink is Love

### 5/5 — Best Service

*2025-09-16, version 1.0.6 (40)*

My late feionce had this service in 2010 before death. Swore by this service. As do I later on down the years.

### 5/5 — Help

*2023-07-17, version 1.0.3*

I think someone ordered a phone in my name it says I already have a account I don’t have a phone threw safelink yet.

### 5/5 — Sprint?

*2023-06-21, version 1.0.3*

About one year ago, I kept getting notices in the mail, telling me that Sprint took over safe link and that if I didn’t respond within 30 days, my service for safe link would be shut off. They sent me a free Sim card and it worked for about a year and a half with no payments and out of nowhere a month ago. My phone just won’t let me talk text or anything unless it’s iPhone to iPhone. I have had safe link since 2011 and have never had to reapply since nothing changed in my financial status, so I don’t know what that was all about. did I get scammed? Even though sprint gave me a free Sim card and again I had free service through them for about a year or so and then with no notification. I had absolutely no phone service to use. other than that, I have had no problems whatsoever with safe link in all the years I’ve had it

### 5/5 — Freeman

### 5/5 — SafeLink wireless

*2020-08-09, version 1.0*

SafeLink wireless network working much better and I love it 🥰

### 4/5 — Almost there!

*2020-05-21*

The app works pretty well, I can see balances that I normally can’t see on the Safelink website. However, when app restarts, I am prompted to sign back in every time the app is restarted. Can you please add an option to stay signed in or at least have Face ID/Touch ID authentication?
