HOW IT WORKS Unlike other app-2-app messengers we let you call and text ANY phone number.
Your friend’s phone company charges us small fees to deliver texts and calls on their networks. Rather than force you to pay, we let you view a few banner ads or watch a quick video. If you choose, you can pay a buck or two and make those ads disappear. The choice is yours. And remember if your friend joins Nextplus we remove video ads entirely.
Think of Nextplus as the FREE ad-supported phone company that works just like popular free video and music services!

Not a bad app, sometimes text message won't go through, but is something that happens NOT OFTEN.
★★★★★Mary Francis· May 21, 2026
I haven't used this app yet BUT what caught my eye was the fact that they tell you "no service needed" while other apps like this say it's free when there not. This app tells you right from the get go what it's all about even if I do have to pay to use this app at least they are honest about this.
★★★★★Admir Krupa· Apr 28, 2026
I need someone to assist me with issue that my text messages doesn't go through
★★★★☆Fabonmi Ayobami· Feb 19, 2026
Cool just needs to upgrade the calling stuffs
★☆☆☆☆Sherazkhan Omarzai· Feb 16, 2026
Awful as this app did not allow me to open an account with it to get a free virtual number for making calls and texting.
★☆☆☆☆moise teko· May 8, 2026
I am very disappointed by this app. After I paid my monthly subscription I got banned permanently. I am furious about this. They said I should contact their customer service for this issue. Why in the world do I have to be banned immediately after paying my subscription. They're the worst app ever. NEVER EVER, EVER Pay for any subscription plan. You'll get permanently banned from using it. And you won't be given any reason for being banned. That's evil.
★☆☆☆☆James· Jul 2, 2026
I paid for credits, and now it says the app is not available in my region, straight up scam
★☆☆☆☆chris cheski· Mar 12, 2026
To many Bs ads but the real problem is sending msgs it constantly fails to send msgs time after time, and it's annoying I'm going to another company that can figure out how to send msgs
