An editorial reading of the saved reviews

Burner provides a real second number for calls and SMS and has served as a work line for years — that is genuine value. But the app takes 20 seconds to open, message history sometimes fails to load at all, and notifications do not arrive from unknown numbers.

Very good app and reasonable prices, i dont have to worry about using my personal numbers and get lots of spam calls and this is a good way to have a second number for work then carrying around two phones!

I have used this app as the primary line for my business, and it has performed very well. After five years of flawless service, I experienced an issue in early 2026 that required assistance from Burner Support, and they resolved it in a timely manner.
