Sideline™ is the free 2nd number for your smartphone. It uses your existing carrier network and minutes so your 2nd number works anywhere your cell phone does. Since Sideline provides carrier reliability, it’s the go-to phone solution for small businesses, entrepreneurs, freelancers, or anyone who needs a 2nd phone line for privacy. You can finally stop using your cell number for work and keep your personal number private.
GET A FREE NUMBER IN YOUR AREA CODE
Select a local area code and get a number that works wherever you do. You get to talk and text from a 2nd phone line—and because it’s a real number, you can call or text anyone.
CARRIER RELIABILITY
Sideline works with your carrier network to give you the same great quality and reliability you get from your regular cell number. This also lets you share your calling minutes (which are probably unlimited) between two numbers. Compared to “cloud-based,” “virtual,” or “VoIP” phone systems, Sideline uses a minimal amount of data for general functionality.
CALLING & TEXTING
Your second number is just like your first. Separate caller IDs, notifications, and ringtones make it clear who’s contacting you. For outbound communication, just open Sideline. With your free phone number, you get unlimited texting and Sideline calling uses the carrier plan you already have.
KEEP YOUR PERSONAL NUMBER PRIVATE
You shouldn’t give your personal number to everyone—that’s why there’s Sideline. But it’s not just a 2nd line for work. It can be your temporary number. Your anonymous number. Your business number. Your disposable number. Your fake phone number. It’s whatever you need it to be to protect your primary cell number.
VOICEMAIL FORWARDING & AUTO-REPLY
On nights, weekends, or holidays, you can always silence Sideline and send callers to voicemail. You can even set up multiple voicemails or auto-text replies to customize your greeting for any circumstance.
SIDELINE PRO $2.99/ month
Sideline Pro removes ads, enables Wi-Fi calling, and prevents your number from expiring (we reclaim inactive numbers from non-subscribers after 30 days). Wi-Fi calling lets you toggle between networks in case you have a weaker carrier signal. Look for more features to come!
Sideline Pro subscriptions are automatically billed monthly to your iTunes Account. The $2.99 auto-renewals get charged within 24-hours prior to the end of the current period. You can turn off auto-renew in your account settings. Unfortunately, cancellations aren't allowed during active subscription periods. If you don’t want to pay for Sideline, you can simply continue using it for free.
