I wish i knew about this app before. I could have migrated to this instead of loosing my old number.

How long does the number last? There was or still is a site (can’t remember name) where you get a temporary number to receive a text, and it is only good for X minutes or something. I don’t text and don’t have a smartphone, just an older-than-dirt flip phone, so this would really solve a problem for me with the occasional problem where a text is required. In this case, if you don’t use the number very often, does it “expire”? Reading the website now…

@dionaea If you click “Keep me logged in” on Textfree Web, your account will stay active for 7 days (meaning you will not have to re-enter the password in that time.)
So, within every 7 day period, you must click “Keep me logged in” or re-enter the password.
I couldn’t find any expiration time.

@dionaea : Says 7 days, they send you a reminder, I have never lost my number I “remember” in 14-16 days, send myself a text and the number stays live. I use this for my daughter until she gets her own phone. She uses Wi-Fi at school and texts me for pickup.
