I purchased a number from Textnow for a bunch of my apps, it's like $5 a year or something and it works with everything, I don't have to worry about losing access to my number like you do with most of those websites.

With signal definitely and most likely the other apps you spoke of you don't actually have to activate the Sim to use the number associated with that Sim.. just make sure the sim comes with the number on the packaging. Simply put the Sim into your phone don't activate it just go to the app input the number the verification will still come threw once verified take out Sim and put your Sim back in done easy as

Be aware of 5sim service conditions: The created account was banned after a while According to clause 9 of the website operation rules, we are not responsible for the ban of registered accounts, since ban is affected by many factors. Refund or numbers replacement are not stipulated in this case.  (Jul 13, 2023 04:55 AM)Sand Ferret Wrote: Use an SMS verification service - few examples below: I would avoid this. You lose the security of your account once you do this. Getting a burner phone is a far better option or another way of having control over the sim.
