Send and receive SMS

Texts to your second number are ordinary SMS. They arrive in the app, and you reply from there.

Step by step

  1. Open Messages and tap New message.
  2. Type the number under Recipient and pick the line under Send from.
  3. Write your message and tap Send. They get an ordinary SMS from your second number.
  4. Replies arrive in the same thread.

Good to know

  • Israeli numbers only, up to 1,000 characters a message. During the free trial, up to 10 texts.
  • On an incoming call you can tap Reply with SMS to send "Can't talk now, I'll call you back."
Video from the app: a new message, the recipient, sending, and the thread. Video with narration. It plays only when you press play; the captions are what the narrator says.

Real calls. Real SMS.

Cellular calls

Calls to the number ring on your phone's regular line in cellular quality, and outgoing calls go out through your phone's own dialer. You don't need internet to talk, and any phone can call the number.

SMS

Real text messages: any phone can text the number, and you can text any phone in Israel from it. Not an in-app chat.

Calling over Wi‑Fi is just an option, for when you have no reception.
