SpareLine is a phone number service that runs in an app. You choose a number, and calls and text messages to it arrive in the app on every device you are signed in on.
What you can do
- Call and text ordinary phone numbers. Your SpareLine number is shown as the caller ID, so replies come back to it.
- Receive calls and text messages on the number.
- Keep several numbers on one account, each with its own messages, call history and settings.
- Decide per number what happens to a call nobody answers: forward it, take a voicemail or send a text reply.
How you pay
SpareLine is prepaid. You add money to your balance, and numbers, calls and messages are paid from it. A call is priced before it connects, and it ends rather than running into debt if the balance runs out. See Adding money to your balance.
What it is not
- Not a SIM or a mobile subscription. SpareLine needs a data connection. Without Wi-Fi or mobile data it cannot place or receive calls.
- Not for emergency calls. SpareLine cannot call 112, 911 or any other emergency number. Use the phone app your device came with. See Emergency calls.
