More About TextNow

TextNow is an MVNO that provides cellular service using both the T-Mobile and Sprint networks. The company claims to be the world's first cloud-based phone carrier, as its technology allows for phone calls and texts to be placed preferentially over WiFi with a fallback to the parent network's data and cellular pipelines. The technology is similar in function to how competing platforms from Republic Wireless and Google Project Fi work.
