There are many. Ifttt.com now on Android. Haven’t played around much yet.

Yes I know both have been retired and no longer supported. But they’re both better than their replacement.

I use windscribe {free} and proxpn {$39 lifetime}. On my phone I use tunnel bear and got invited to proton. Both windscribe and proxpn are slow at times. Windscribe has a firewall switch that disconnects so it too won’t leak.

@miserly never even heard of redpocket until now, the $10/month 500 plan looks pretty good! where is the $90/yr plan?

i’m currently on t-mobile prepaid $3/month minimum 10c per minute or text, no data. got ~$35 left in there

they sell annual plans on ebay exclusively.

2 plans i’d consider are
$80/PagePlus for 365 days of service and 2,000 voice or texts on Verizon
$90/RedPocket for 365 of service and 500 voice/text/mb each month on any major carrier

though i haven’t received confirmation that Redpocket Essential plan can run on flip phone

Sticking with PagePlus. It’s on the Verizon network and is only $80 a year. Only $6.67 a month, find something cheaper than that.

red pocket can be on any of the 4 networks (you choose) and while they don’t have a $80/year plan, they do have $90/ year plan that gives you 500 min/text/data EACH month. depending on your usage, that can be a LOT cheaper than the PP plan.
