Free text messaging on iPhone with Google Voice number

I recently found a great solution for getting free text messaging on my iPhone. I don't like the idea of paying AT&T 20 cents per message or $5-$25 a month for a plan. The program is called TextNow by Enflick, currently rated 4 stars with 708 ratings in the App store. It's 99 cents for 3 months ad-free. Or it's free if you don't mind the ads.

Once everything is setup, your contacts can text your Google Voice number, and you will get an instant push notification from TextNow. As long as you follow instructions during setup, your Google Voice number will always show up as the ID on your text messages.

More information on the app is at the TextNow Web site:

You can download the app directly at:
