Throwaway: Second Number

Text from a separate number. Keep yours safe.

Throwaway gives you a second U.S. number for SMS texting, right on your iPhone. Choose an available area code and start texting without sharing your personal number.

KEEP YOUR REAL NUMBER SAFE
• Use a separate number for sign-ups and new contacts
• Keep Throwaway conversations separate from your personal texts
• Keep your existing phone number and carrier unchanged

FLEXIBLE CONTROLS
• Mute your Throwaway number when you need quiet
• Block unwanted senders
• Easily export selected contacts back to your iPhone
• See your balance at a glance

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• No ads. No tracking.
• Your message history and in-app contacts stay on this iPhone, not on our servers. Delete the app, and they are gone.

BUILT FOR iOS
