Calls, texts & numbers

What is DuoNumber?

DuoNumber gives you a second phone number on your iPhone for work, listings, travel, or everyday conversations. Keep your existing SIM and main number. Availability of numbers and destinations depends on the country and carrier.

What can I try before paying?

You can test a temporary number for 5 minutes with one free outgoing call of up to about 2 minutes. The test is available once per phone and requires no purchase. It is not a subscription free trial. A paid number and usage credits are required afterwards.

How do credits and incoming calls work?

Monthly plans provide credits for number rental, calls, and supported outgoing texts. Rates vary by destination. Monthly plan credits expire at the end of the month; separately purchased credit packs do not expire. Incoming calls are included for subscribers; without an active subscription, incoming minutes use credits. There is no unlimited calling or texting.

How does number renewal work?

Your number is rented for a month and renews using credits. Keep enough credits available and check its renewal details in the app. If renewal is not funded, the number may be released and may not be recoverable. Managing a rented number and canceling an Apple subscription are separate actions.

Why can’t I make or receive a call?

Check your internet connection, confirm your rented number is active, and check your credit balance. Allow microphone access in iPhone Settings so the other person can hear you. Try another connection if possible. Incoming calls use the familiar iPhone call screen, including when the app is closed. If the issue continues, contact us with the time, time zone, destination country, and any error message. Premium-rate destinations are not supported.

Can I send texts to US or Canadian numbers?

Sending SMS to US and Canadian (+1) numbers is not available. Receiving SMS from +1 numbers is supported. You can send SMS to supported destinations; carrier restrictions may apply. MMS, picture messages, and group messaging are not supported.

Why haven’t I received a text or verification code?

Check that your rented number is active and that the sender used the correct number and country code. Virtual numbers may not receive verification codes from every service, and delivery is not guaranteed. Check notification permission if a message appears in the app without an alert. Contact us if ordinary incoming SMS continues to fail; do not send the verification code itself.

Can I call someone without sharing my contacts?

Yes. Contacts access is optional. You can type a number in the dial pad instead. Microphone permission is needed for calls. Notification permission controls message alerts and reminders; incoming calls use Apple’s call system.

Can I use DuoNumber for emergency calls?

Do not rely on DuoNumber for emergency calls. Use your regular phone service instead. DuoNumber does not replace your SIM or regular phone service.

Still need help?

Include your app version, iPhone model, iOS version, what happened, and any error message. For a call or text issue, add the approximate time and time zone, destination country, and whether it was incoming or outgoing. Mask private content in screenshots.
