FreeTone – Review

FreeTone - Review
Grow with Dr Prem

FreeTone is a cross-platform app that allows you to make audio/video calls, chat and send text messages for free using a number different from your own phone number. The app supports your communication with contacts within the United States.

Appearance –

FreeTone is a simple app with no flashy features. However, the app may annoy you as a user when you see constantly appearing ads while messaging or using its features. Frequent and sudden ads in this app can make it problematic for you to dial numbers or write messages. As against this flaw, FreeTone makes it easier for you to make calls using a secondary number that is provided on the creation of your account on this app.

Performance —

This app can work on both iOS and Android devices. However, the performance of the app is not very reliable. Although it can be downloaded on several devices, it is not very good at synchronization between devices. In fact, while sending and receiving messages on multiple devices, synchronization totally fails. You may send a message from one device while its reply may appear on your second device. FreeTone is quite inefficient when you use it on multiple devices.

Ease of use —

It may be quite irritating to use FreeTone at times, especially when you use it on different devices simultaneously. This app does not have the right mechanism to track the device you have been using at a certain time. It is also not easy to deal with unlimited ads that it keeps displaying.

Usefulness —

The FreeTone app is useful for making free calls and sending text messages, especially when you do not want to give out a lot of information to people calling for marketing purposes. Since the app gives you a secondary number to place your calls, you may use this number as an alternative to your regular phone number. However, your unlimited quota of calls is limited to US contacts. You will need to pay and upgrade your account to make calls to your foreign contacts. Apart from this, the app is useful when you want to send messages with photos and videos. Nevertheless, these are displayed in a message in the form of links.

Value for money –

While FreeTone allows you to make free use of its communication services, there are several other apps that do the same and with better service quality. Because of its annoying ads and hidden costs, this app does not deliver good value for money.
