Ripoff

Extra charges alert - and then Apple will not refund - time to go to Android - DO NOT BUY!

Worst app ever

After letting me pay for subscriptions and credits they now telling me I can’t send messages to US numbers

Wasting of money

I regret paying for this app, it messed up. I can’t receive text and I can text other numbers.

Rip off

Stole my money. Did first text and it said it won’t do numbers in the United States

Unable to call or text US numbers

This app is a scam. UI is horrible and it will not allow you to call or text US numbers.

Scam for USA callers

You buy the plan, and then it tells you that calling or texting is not supported in the USA. Tried multiple times to reach support but they just told me that “Apple will refund me” but obviously that is not the case ? This happened multiple times after sending multiple messages and then they just stopped answering me after following their directions.

Hi there! We’re sorry for the misunderstanding. The Texter app works in the USA without any restrictions. It seems your concern is related specifically to messaging US numbers. All important information about Texter’s functionality is clearly stated in the app description on the App Store and is available to all users before downloading. Unfortunately, the restriction on texting US numbers cannot be resolved, as our customer support has already explained. Please note that calling US numbers is not restricted and works without any issues. If you have more questions, feel free to ask.

Can’t send messages in US.

Just know you can’t use this app to send any messages to people in the US.

SCAM!!! Generates ‘INVALID PHONE NUMBER’ error!

I spent $3.99 and attempted to receive sms verification from two different sources, and BOTH triggered the exact same error: “Please Enter Valid Number.”

I want my $3.99 refunded so that I can throw it the trash, because that would be a better investment in comparison to this garbage!!!

The app advertises the one thing it does not do - SMS Text Verifications!

Hello! We are sorry for the inconvenience. We confirm that the phone numbers provided by the Texter app work for verification purposes. The issue you experienced is not caused by the Texter app, but by the other sources where you used the number. It looks like they don't support VoIP phone numbers for verification purposes. We recommend contacting their support to find out what types of phone numbers are supported for verification purposes. If you need more help, feel free to contact our customer support directly from the Texter app. Thank you for your understanding!

Complete trash

You can’t send text messages to people in the USA? This is 100% worthless.

UPDATE: Read the devs response. They actually admit that they know you can’t use the service in the US. Why the heck are they still selling in this market? Apple, hello?

Scam

Scam

I tried to contact a friend from a Canadian number, little did I know it wouldn’t work. So I spent $10 to change my number to an American number hoping it would work. It did not. I don’t know if anyone else will experience this delema, but if i do not get my money back or get this thing working, I will be contacting someone.

Hi there! We state information about this texting restriction in the app's description on the App Store, which is available before making a purchase in the app. We are sorry for not meeting your expectations. Feel free to submit your refund request directly to Apple.

Can’t use in the US!

I just bought this and it says I cannot use it for US numbers?! What a joke. Cancelling immediately, it did not say anything about this when applying AND it even shows an American flag on the app. That is false advertising.

Response from developer

Hi there! We are sorry for the misunderstanding. The Texter app works in the US. Only texting to US phone numbers isn't available due to US network restrictions. We cannot avoid these restrictions and were forced to stop supporting this service, as stated in the app's description on the App Store.
