TextNow Wireless Problems iPhone

TextNow wireless on the T-Mobile network has some problems, at least for iPhone users. Facetime and iMessage will only work properly over wifi (if you are not paying TextNow for a data plan), and you have to be sure to send iMessages from the email address that is tied to your Apple ID. Must know for TextNow wireless IOS users!

*IMPORTANT NOTE* If you are an iPhone user who doesn't care about those two apps, and are totally fine with using the TextNow app for your calling, texting, and video calls--you will likely have a great experience (for a free plan with a $5 sim card and no data).

I cover an unknown number that becomes tied to your Apple ID when you use TextNow, as well as some customer service issues to be aware of. I still think TextNow has the best free talk and text plan on the T-Mobile network, but if you are an iPhone user that doesn't want to change the way they use their device (when away from wifi) then it might not be the best option for you.

Please check out my first TextNow video for more general information about the plan I'm using!
