## What is NT Connect?

Call anyone, anywhere. Free. Private.

Sign up with just an @username. No phone number is needed. Share your handle like a social profile, and anyone on NT Connect can call you for free, anywhere in the world, without ever seeing your number.

Need to reach someone who isn't on the app? Add a real US or Canadian phone number and make or take calls from any landline or mobile on earth at ultra-low rates.

Got an iPad? NT Connect turns it into a real phone, with its own phone number and @handle, so a Wi-Fi tablet can make and take real calls.

Texts get skimmed. Messages get autocompleted. Real Calls. Real Voices. NT Connect brings real-time voice calls back to the center of how you stay close to friends and family - anywhere in the world.

### 1/5 — Scammers. Wont Refund my next year Fee.

*2025-10-31, version 4.1.27*

Phone Line is dead most of the time & you will miss important calls. They wont refund my next year fee & they wont reply to my emails. Stay Away.

### 1/5 — Beware It’s a fraud company now

*2024-09-17, version 4.1.26*

Do not use Nettalk any more . I was on Nettalk for last twelve years. Suddenly on 15th September 24 it stopped working. Upon contact I was informed that their system has detected something wrong and canceled the account. No more details provided. They refused to refund me my money for the unused subscription. I feel Nettalk is in hands of suspicious people and have suspicious employees to be fair . 
I will update if I hear more from Nettalk

### 1/5 — Blank page

*2024-08-31, version 4.1.25*

The new app NetConnect was automatically downloaded on my iPad replacing the old one (Nettalk). Although I paid for the service until the year 2028, I just cannot use the app. Each time i try to log in a blank page is prompted. Could not even reach support or help, no answer either.

### 2/5 — Latest iOS version is glitchy.

*2023-04-03, version 4.1.24*

Does not always ring when calls are incoming. Also on iOS often mutes and/or turns off speaker intermittently. Need a fix please.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work with iPhone 11 and newer

*2023-02-14, version 4.1.24*

I have been a satisfied client of NetTalk for years, and enlisted in their mobile app a few months ago.  The app works on my iPhone 7, but systematically crashes on my iPhones 11 and 13.  Systematically.  I had numerous chats with their support department; they told me they referred the problem to their technical department and will contact me once there is a fix.  Their last update came out over a year ago, and still no new update in sight.  Now, their customer service doesn’t even respond to my inquiries.  A serious company would remove this app from the Apple store until it works with all iPhone models and iOS.

### 1/5 — Can’t make outgoing calls from my iPhone

*2022-09-29, version 4.1.24*

My iPhone 7 has v4.1.24.  I can receive incoming calls but outgoing calls do not connect to the destination #.  I hear ringing from my end but the destination phone does not receive my call.  Reloaded the app, used different routers and ISP’s, with and without VPN, with the same results.

### 1/5 — Net what?

*2022-07-21*

Installed this (plus paid $5) to receive text messages to my NetTALK number forwarded to my phone.  Automated verification texts never go through.  Plus, phone calls never connect to my iPhone when they ring my number.  Currently, app won’t even open even after re-install.  Not sure what I am paying for…

### 1/5 — App update broke it for iOS 12.4

*2021-12-15, version 4.1.24*

Unfortunately the last “fix” update has broken the launch of the app. It immediately closes down on my iPhone 6 running 12.4. Please restore functionality! Need it for SMS.

### 2/5 — A number of features don’t work

*2021-10-23, version 4.1.24*

The app just, overall, does not seem to work the way it is supposed to. I added the SMS package. Outgoing SMS messages don’t reach the destination; incoming SMS messages show up in my notifications but aren’t displayed in the text area. The text area is just empty. Reported concerns to customer service. It had to be escalated from the first tier tech support; I never heard from them again, even after I sent a follow-up email. Outgoing calls and incoming calls don’t work on my WiFi or cellular network. Just silence. I live rurally so my internet is not great, but I can stream video, have videoconferences, many of this simultaneously, without issue, so there is no excuse for VoIP not to work.  I’ve given it two stars because the only feature that does seem to work is the voicemail.

### 4/5 — Badge Icon Notifications

*2021-01-30, version 4.1.20*

Please consider adding support for notifications on the app badge for new voicemails and missed calls.
