Temporary phone numbers, explained
What is a temporary phone number, really?
A temporary public number gives you quick access to a shared inbox that stays visible to anyone opening the route. It is useful for testing a message flow, not protecting the message contents.
Disposable on purpose
Perfect for one-time signups and throwaway accounts when open visibility is acceptable.
Country-specific routing
Pick a line in the region your service expects so geo-checks and rate limits stay aligned with the test.
Upgrade to private
When the account matters, move into a dedicated mobile number routed only to your dashboard.

Private delivery
Need a private inbox instead of a public one?
Rent a dedicated SIM-backed mobile number for ongoing account use. No shared feed, no other readers, and a clear move out of public visibility when privacy starts to matter.

Priority support and private delivery when the account matters
Are the public numbers really free to use?
Yes. Every public number listed here is free to browse and use. They are shared inboxes designed for open, non-sensitive verification workflows.
Are SMS messages sent to public numbers private?
No. Messages sent to public numbers are visible to anyone who opens that inbox. Use mobile numbers when the code should stay private.
How long do public numbers stay active?
Public routes stay active while they remain healthy for open usage. Message history is retained only for the configured public window.
When should I switch to a private mobile number?
Move into mobile numbers whenever the account matters: banking, exchanges, recovery flows, or any verification tied to your identity.
Can I share a SMS number with someone else?
Public routes can be shared because they are intentionally open. Mobile numbers are account-scoped and meant for the authenticated customer only.
