The only text free Wi-Fi app that actually lets you send and receive phone calls the messages work perfectly as well. The calling isn't perfect and speakerphone makes it to where the person on the other end cannot hear you. calls can drop but in a pinch this is definitely the way to go.

I've been using this app for a long time across various devices and wish I could rate it higher. What stops me is lately this app has been causing severe battery life and temperature issues. My battery will drain rapidly when I have the app open, in some cases I can literally watch it drop 10-20% in seconds, which may be that device since it's not on the rest. If the app is open, even in the background, my devices will become very warm, sometimes uncomfortable to hold.

Mediocre at best from my experience. When or if it works it's a solid app but about 50% of the time the message doesn't send or is received. The other 75% of the time is a battle between keeping it open without it quiting on its own and trying to open the messages without it going back to the inbox and then quitting. The annoying messages you receive that remind you that it needs to be used or the numbers will be deleted works absolutely fine though.
