Not to get confused of course, texting and SMS messages are 2 very different things.


Eer, no they're not.......

as is SMS is generally associated with mobile phones, where you can send a text to any other mobile phone on any other network (usually at a cost or via your contract). most texting apps mentioned here dont do that. they just cater for direct app to app texting.

I use Talkatone with no issues at all. If my iPad rings and I don't answer the call forwards to my iPhone. The text I get on both devices!

Whistle is a phone app that I use, It give you a phone number and is free. However you need to listen to an advertisement before the call completes. If you pay the subscription there is not adds.

And it's FREE.
I'm trying to get it to VoIP to my iPhone as well as my iPad, but so far it always uses the cellular side. (The reason I'm trying for VoIP is that some of my travels take me to areas that have no cell service, but have wifi.)

Line2 3G thru AT&T data plan?

At home the best internet service I can get is satelite - not good for VOIP at all! I have the AT&T 3G data plan for my Ipad2 and was wondering if the Line2 uses the data plan for calls or is it an actual cell call? :confused: I am trying to figure out a way to use my Ipad2 as a phone using one of the Internet phone providers.

calling with ipad

After you look over Line2 (AKA Toktumi)
take a look at VoiceCentral.

Many of the same features.

By the way, seems that the Voice Central app is no longer in iTunes.

My wife has it on her ipad1 but I can't seem to find it for my ipad2.



No good!
