TL;DR: As of February 25, get a Hushed Private Phone Line Lifetime Subscription for just $24.99 — that’s 83% off.
With the number of scammy calls you get on the daily, you know you could use a number immune to the constant barrage of telemarketers. An alternate number also comes in handy when dipping your toes into the dating pool and prefer not to hand out your personal number or when you’re running a business and want to centralize your comms. The good news is you don’t even have to sell your soul to another long-term plan with your provider. All you need is an app.
Hushed is an app designed to function as your private phone line. It allows you to make calls and send texts from a separate number without the monthly fees. For a limited time, you can grab a lifetime subscription for just $24.99.
A Hushed subscription entitles you to select your preferred area code from hundreds of options across the US and Canada, allowing you to be a local in your city of choice. With a lifetime plan, you’re allocated 6,000 texts or 10,000 phone minutes annually, which you can use however you want. You can also personalize your voicemail and create auto-reply messages for incoming texts. And since it’s not tethered to a traditional phone plan, you’ll only have to use WiFi or data.
While you can manage all your communication straight from the app, you can also set up call-forwarding to divert rings to your primary number or another of your choosing. There’s also a call routing feature to make calls using voice minutes from your wireless plan, perfect for times when you’re in an area with spotty web.
Want to up the ante, privacy-wise? You always have the option to dispose of your current number and change it at any time you wish. Conversely, you can cling to a single number for as long as you want.
