This would be a huge disadvantage to your customers. It is absurd to charge people to obtain verification codes.
My old Galaxy Tab a lags quite a bit and I often get the textnow pop-up. It works more or less the way I expected. I have my phone and wifi on the top of their game. It is an emergency backup, and must work. It has connected to 3 wifis and it still doesn't work until I turn it on and off. If you don't try it repeatedly, it won't connect to your phone. This is getting too much that I'm reconsidering my need for wifi messaging in rural areas. Only thing holding me back is my need to use wifi messaging in rural locations. This is probably a design flaw that will make you tap or swipe ads to relieve frustration.
The ads can be so disruptive that it actually interferes with the ability to read what you're typing and the program usability. Slowly, the user interface has been declining. This program has been in my life for over three years.
