Hushed Review

Hushed is a second phone number app for iPhone, Android and tablets. You choose a number from more than 300 area codes in the United States, Canada or the United Kingdom, and call and text from it over Wi-Fi or mobile data, without a SIM card. You can hold several numbers at once, for example one for dating, one for selling online and one for a trip, and remove a number when you no longer need it. Each number has voicemail, call forwarding, call routing and auto-reply texts.

Hushed is sold by AffinityClick Inc. (the seller name on its App Store page). Because it is VoIP, it needs an internet connection, but it also works when you are abroad: US and Canadian numbers can call and text within both countries on every plan type, and pay-as-you-go credits cover international calls. Hushed says some services accept its numbers for verification codes, depending on their own policies.

Hushed has three plan types, all priced per number.

The app is free to download, and the App Store page offers a 3-day trial subscription; there is no free plan. Hushed's App Store page also lists 1-line and 3-line subscriptions and a $9.99 prepaid calling-credit pack. Per-minute international rates are shown in the app, not on the pricing page.

What Hushed lists on its pricing page and App Store page:

Hushed fits people who want more than one private number, or a UK number, and do not mind using Wi-Fi or data: online dating, selling on marketplaces, moving to a new area code, or travel. The prepaid 30, 90 and 365-day plans suit short-term use where you do not want a subscription that renews.

Pick something else if: you want numbers you can delete and replace in seconds with VPN and number lookup bundled (Burner); one ad-free US line that also works in a desktop browser (Line2); calls over your carrier network without data (Sideline); or a free number with ads (TextNow).

Hushed has 4.6 out of 5 from about 23K ratings on the App Store (read November 12, 2026). Positive App Store reviews mention the low annual price and call forwarding from a main number. Hushed itself notes that whether its numbers can receive verification codes depends on each service's policy, so check before using one for an account you care about.
