Good apps for hobbyist an providers

Hello everyone I'm a newbie to the hobby trying to get established an i was wondering if any of the vets providers or hobbyist had suggestions or experience in using good apps that are free to give a second line for hobby use only instead of going out an purchasing a whole new device for hobby use or should a RW number just be used ? Any advice is appreciated

Try google voice it's free. It's a forwarding service, so it will provide you with a new number that forwards to your RW mobile. Text and voice calls can be made from the app.

If google voice doesnt work for you, you can try textplus. I could not get the google voice to cooperate with me so downloaded textplus. Gives you a unique number and you can text for free. You can buy minutes, but its not bad. I think it was 99 cents for 60 minutes. Which should be ample time unless youre having phone sex for hours at a timd, lol.
