But, they can also make things more complicated, especially if you\u2019re trying to manage your personal life, business life, and a gig on the side all through the same phone. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">Constant buzzing and notifications can be hard to manage, and even harder when you don\u2019t know why people are calling. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">Fortunately, there are a few options for ways to make your phone even more effective, and easier to manage at the same time. One of the best for working professionals is to get a second phone number app to help organize your calls and recognize which ones are most important. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">If you\u2019re wondering how to get a second phone number, you\u2019re in the right place. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s1\">What is a Second Phone Number App?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">Second phone number apps give you a second number on the same phone you\u2019re already using. Many rely on an internet or cellular connection to make the calls work, instead of regular phone signal.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">Second phone number apps also often give you access to other features and functions at the same time. Many will also let you use a variety of different area codes, and some can even create a phone number from a different country entirely.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">It&#8217;s also easy to set up a recording function to run through your second phone number so that you never lose the details of an important conversation. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">Second number apps are easily the simplest and most cost-effective way to get a second phone number since you don\u2019t need a second sim card, separate phone subscription, or any other additions to your existing phone. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">Now that you know what a second phone number app is, let\u2019s talk about how they can be useful. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s1\">Why Do You Need a Second Phone Number App?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">There are plenty of reasons to get a second phone number app, but one of the most common is organization. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p5\"><span class=\"s1\">Organizing Business and Personal Life<\/span><\/h3>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">With a second phone number app, you can separate your business and personal life into the two numbers without having to pay for a second phone and phone plan. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">Having a second phone number just makes it easier to keep your busy life organized. It can also help you screen calls. If you only accept business calls during certain hours, using a second phone number for your business line can make it easier to tell when you\u2019re getting a business call, and when a friend is trying to get in touch. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">Of course, the reverse is also true. When you need to focus on work you can screen your personal line, while still accepting business calls on your second phone number. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p5\"><span class=\"s1\">International Calling<\/span><\/h3>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">It can also be helpful if you have to handle international calls or are expanding your business and need a local phone number for both locations. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p5\"><span class=\"s1\">Changing Your Phone Number<\/span><\/h3>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">If you\u2019re changing your phone number, you can also use a second phone number app to provide a temporary number while you\u2019re waiting for the switch to complete. Since many of these apps also offer a call forwarding service, you can also get your second phone number to forward calls to your new phone number, which helps make that transition easier. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p5\"><span class=\"s1\">Privacy<\/span><\/h3>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">The last major reason you might want to use a second phone number app is to give yourself more privacy. If you think about it, people can get a lot of information about you from your main phone number app. Using a second, separate, phone number through a phone number app gives you another layer of privacy. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">That additional privacy makes it a lot easier to give out a phone number, especially since you know that you can drop the phone number any time you need to. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">Okay, let\u2019s talk about how to pick the best second phone number app, and look at which apps are the best options on the market right now. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s1\">What is the Best App for a Second Phone Number?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">There is no one true winner when it comes to second phone number apps. We\u2019ve put together a list of ten of the best options, but when you really get down to it the best second phone number app is going to be the one that offers more of the features and benefits you need. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p5\"><span class=\"s1\">How to Pick the Best Second Phone Number App for You<\/span><\/h3>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">That might mean that the best second phone app for you is one that has very few bells and whistles, a low subscription price, and consistent performance. Or, you might need a second phone number app with a few more features, a reasonable subscription, and great customer service contacts. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">You also need to make sure you&#8217;re matching your second phone number app to the kind of phone you own. Some will only work on iOS (and will need you to keep your phone reasonably up to date), while others are Android-specific. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">Don\u2019t worry though, there are plenty of options in both markets. We\u2019ve selected some of the best from each marketplace, as well as some of the best options that are available in both the Google Play Store and the Apple App Store. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"p6\"><span class=\"s1\">Best Second Phone Number Apps for iPhone:<\/span><\/h2>\n<h3 class=\"p5\"><span class=\"s1\">Krisp<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6869\" src=\"https:\/\/krisp.ai\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/krisp-mobile-dialer.png\" alt=\"second phone number for ios\" width=\"1006\" height=\"548\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">Krisp is one of the best second phone number app for iPhone available on the App Store.

In the United States, they have available phone numbers in almost any area code, so you simply type in your preferred area code and choose the number you like best. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">They offer full-service texting and messaging service, including the ability to send pictures via your second phone number. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">They don&#8217;t offer a free second phone number, you do have to pay if you want the second phone line. However, they have a range of subscriptions or pay as you go options that make it easy to choose the most cost-effective options for you. <\/span><\/p>\n<h4 class=\"p7\"><span class=\"s1\"><i>Key Features:<\/i><\/span><\/h4>\n<ul class=\"ul1\">\n<li class=\"li2\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>Full Text and Messaging Service:<\/b> Texts, video and photo messages, and voice messages are all fully supported through your second phone line with this app. <\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>Wide Technology Compatibility<\/b>: this service uses 3G, 4G, and Wifi to provide more connection options on the go. <\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>Choose Your Area Code:<\/b> with many different phone numbers available in each area code, getting a customer area code and number is simple. <\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>Temporary Numbers: <\/b>You also have the option of getting temporary numbers as you travel to allow friends and family to call local instead of long-distance. <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">Free version included \/ 2<\/span><span class=\"s2\"><sup>nd<\/sup><\/span><span class=\"s1\"> phone number $6.99 \/ Monthly Subscription $12.99<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"p5\"><span class=\"s1\">Numflix<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6871\" src=\"https:\/\/krisp.ai\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Screen-Shot-2020-07-09-at-11.00.10.png\" alt=\"numflix\" width=\"1005\" height=\"527\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">Numflix is another full-service phone line that&#8217;s designed to help you manage your life with a second phone number or a third or fourth for that matter. This app lets you separate your personal life from business, dating, and even get another number to manage sales listings in Craigslist or other websites. Those are just a few examples of course. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">This app is designed to provide multiple temporary phone lines, with very little need to stick to any one line or phone number. You can get rid of any line as soon as you need to. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">However, while they offer full voice call, texting, and messaging abilities, Numflix does charge for \u2018coins\u2019 to handle those interactions. So, you\u2019ll pay a small fee for each line, and then additional fees to use those phone numbers. <\/span><\/p>\n<h4 class=\"p7\"><span class=\"s1\"><i>Key Features:<\/i><\/span><\/h4>\n<ul class=\"ul1\">\n<li class=\"li2\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>Phone, Text, and Messaging:<\/b> as a full-service phone app, you can get phone, text, and messaging services on each phone number you get through the app. <\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>Caller ID:<\/b> you also get a fully functional caller ID on every phone line, without interfering with the caller ID function on your main phone line. <\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>Siri Compatible: <\/b>this second phone line is also Siri compatible, so you can use the virtual assistant to take and place calls just like on your phone\u2019s main phone line. <\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"li3\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>Works on all iOS Devices:<\/b> this app can also be used to turn your iPad and other Apple devices into fully functional phones, in addition to adding a second phone line to your existing phones. <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">Free, $1.99 temp line, Freemium Pay As You Go Charges<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"p6\"><span class=\"s1\">Best Second Phone Number Apps for Android<\/span><\/h2>\n<h3 class=\"p5\"><span class=\"s1\">Telos<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6872\" src=\"https:\/\/krisp.ai\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Screen-Shot-2020-07-09-at-11.08.37.png\" alt=\"telos\" width=\"1116\" height=\"677\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">Moving to the apps that are compatible with Android, this option is an international calling program that works in the United States, Canada, China, Belgium, and the United Kingdom. This app works a little different than the other apps we&#8217;ve discussed since it has a per-minute charge. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">The amount of the charge depends on the location of the call. In the United States, calls cost.09 credits per minute. Calls to Japan cost slightly more than two and a half credits per minute. 500 credits cost 9.99 USD, and you get slight volume discounts for larger credit purchases. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">Telos also offers free call and texting offers, from bonus credits to watching ads and other relatively low-effort tasks. If you\u2019re primarily using Telos for personal reasons you can probably get a lot of call time for free. Business users are probably better off using a paid version of the app. <\/span><\/p>\n<h4 class=\"p7\"><span class=\"s1\"><i>Key Features:<\/i><\/span><\/h4>\n<ul class=\"ul1\">\n<li class=\"li2\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>Call Recorder:<\/b> this app offers the ability to record your most important calls so that you have a solid record of your communications. <\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>Conference Calls Are Free: <\/b>Conference calls are no more expensive than standard calling, which means long-distance business meetings are easier than ever. <\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>International SMS:<\/b> Telos has a wide variety of international texting options, and international texts are no more expensive than regular texting<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>Also Serves as a Fax Machine:<\/b> This app also lets your devices function as a Fax Machine<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">Telos to Telos is Free, All Other Calls Have a Variable Per Minute Charge<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p5\"><span class=\"s1\">WhatsCall<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6873\" src=\"https:\/\/krisp.ai\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/WhatsCall.jpg\" alt=\"WhatsCall\" width=\"697\" height=\"406\" srcset=\"https:\/\/krisp.ai\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/WhatsCall.jpg 697w, https:\/\/krisp.ai\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/WhatsCall-300x175.jpg 300w, https:\/\/krisp.ai\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/WhatsCall-380x221.jpg 380w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 697px) 100vw, 697px\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">WhatsCall is another phone app that\u2019s completely free to use, as long as you\u2019re only calling from one WhatsCall device and account to another. Once you\u2019re calling to a normal phone you will need WhatsCall credits. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">Like Telos, WhatsCall makes it relatively simple to earn free credits by completing simple in-app tasks and even playing online games of roulette. However, you need a lot more credits to place calls with WhatsCall, so despite the high credit earnings, it&#8217;s still likely that you&#8217;ll need to pay for additional credits if you need to make long calls or regular calls. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">This system is one of the simpler options you can get, though we\u2019d recommend it more as a supplemental personal line than the phone number you run your business through. <\/span><\/p>\n<h4 class=\"p7\"><span class=\"s1\"><i>Key Features:<\/i><\/span><\/h4>\n<ul class=\"ul1\">\n<li class=\"li2\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>Call Forwarding:<\/b> you can easily set up calls routed through WhatsCall to forward to another phone line, including landlines if necessary. <\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>Free Credits:<\/b> You can earn a reasonable number of credits (about enough for a 30-minute phone call) through free activities in the app<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"li3\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>Free Calling To Other App Users: <\/b>You can also make free calls to anyone else using WhatsCall Combine that with the referral program, and this can be a very useful addition to the app.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">Free to Use, Calling Requires Credits<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"p5\"><span class=\"s1\">2ndLine<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6874\" src=\"https:\/\/krisp.ai\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Screen-Shot-2020-07-09-at-11.13.16.png\" alt=\"2ndline\" width=\"999\" height=\"630\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">This app offers a fantastic free calling service inside the United States and Canada. They also offer highly affordable international calling services. Whether you\u2019re traveling abroad, need to talk to customers across the country and the globe, or just want an alternative to traditional calling services, this is a good option. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">2ndLine is also fully compatible with talk and text, and even supports the use of emojis, video clips, and images. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">You have the option of using a passcode to keep all messages and calls routed through your new second phone number to keep everything safe and secure. You can also use Google Smartlock to avoid having to put in your passcode when you don\u2019t need to. <\/span><\/p>\n<h4 class=\"p7\"><span class=\"s1\"><i>Key Features:<\/i><\/span><\/h4>\n<ul class=\"ul1\">\n<li class=\"li2\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>Passcode Protection:<\/b> This app gives you access to a separate passcode protection so that your call records and text messages are secure. <\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>Free Calling Inside the United States and Canada<\/b>: If you\u2019re only calling inside of the United States and Canada, you may not need to pay any additional for this app, since calling in both countries is completely free. <\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>Lots of Customization options<\/b>: You can customize the app background, ringtones, and all the other details of your app. <\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>Quick Reply<\/b>:<b> <\/b>Quick reply is easy to use and lets you get in touch with your most important business partners, even when you\u2019re too busy for a full reply. <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">Free Calling and Texting to the United States and Canada, Subscriptions Start at $9.99<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"p6\"><span class=\"s1\">Best Second Phone Number Apps for iOS and Android<\/span><\/h2>\n<h3 class=\"p5\"><span class=\"s1\">Google Voice<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6875\" src=\"https:\/\/krisp.ai\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Screen-Shot-2020-07-09-at-11.14.02.png\" alt=\"google voice\" width=\"1119\" height=\"669\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">Of course, no second number apps list would be complete without at least mentioning Google Voice. Despite the name, this flexible app works on both iOS and Android systems. There are two different versions of this app, one for personal use, and one for business use. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">That helps you to customize the features, and the cost, of the program to what you use it for. At 10 dollars a month, the starting subscription of the business level is more affordable than almost any traditional phone plan. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">Google Voice also includes handy features like voicemail transcription, 24\/7 support, and call forwarding on even the lower subscription levels. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">However, while calling in Canada and the US is free, international calling isn\u2019t supported until the $30 a month subscription level. <\/span><\/p>\n<h4 class=\"p7\"><span class=\"s1\"><i>Key Features:<\/i><\/span><\/h4>\n<ul class=\"ul1\">\n<li class=\"li2\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>Unlimited US and Canadian Calling<\/b>: Google voice offers free calling for all users inside the United States and Canada<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>Personal Use is Mostly Free<\/b>:<b> <\/b>While you should be prepared for occasionally charges for certain calls or for high use, personal calling is mostly free through Google Voice<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>Voicemail Transcription and Other Features<\/b>:<b> <\/b>Google voice is also incredibly feature-rich, with a number of adaptability and quality of life adaptations that make this app much easier to use and more complete than most alternatives<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">Mostly Free for Personal Use, starting at $10 a month per user for Business Use<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p5\"><span class=\"s1\">Sideline<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6876\" src=\"https:\/\/krisp.ai\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Sideline.png\" alt=\"sideline\" width=\"969\" height=\"586\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">Sideline boasts that their service works just like your traditional phone number, but costs 80% less than the average phone plan. You get the flexibility of choosing whether you want to be billed monthly, bi-annually, or annually. They also offer unlimited texting and calling on all subscription levels, and as well as their full suite of features. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">The free trial is also a great way to decide if this is the right program for you. Since it\u2019s compatible with both iOS and Android, it works for almost all smartphones. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">It includes the basics like Voicemail on all subscription levels, and you also get to choose your area code and pick from the available phone numbers to find one that\u2019s easy to remember. <\/span><\/p>\n<h4 class=\"p7\"><span class=\"s1\"><i>Key Features:<\/i><\/span><\/h4>\n<ul class=\"ul1\">\n<li class=\"li2\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>No Wifi Required:<\/b> You aren\u2019t attached to wifi services like many other second phone number subscriptions.
