Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about SmartText, the AI-powered texting app for iPhone.

Getting Started
What is SmartText?
SmartText is an AI-powered messaging app for iPhone — with your own private second phone number built in. Screenshot any conversation and get instant, context-aware reply suggestions from 15+ AI models, each with a different voice and perspective.
How does SmartText work?
Take a screenshot of any text conversation — iMessage, WhatsApp, Tinder, Slack, anything. SmartText's AI reads the full context (who said what, the tone, the subtext) and generates multiple natural reply options you can send or customize.
Is SmartText free?
SmartText is free to download, with a free Gemini model built in — it's on the App Store for pre-order now and releases in August 2026. Subscriptions add your own private number and the full AI lineup: SmartText is $9.99/month (first month $1.99) or $99.99/year with a 7-day free trial; SmartText Pro is $19.99/month or $199.99/year. No per-message fees, no credits, no surprises.
What devices does SmartText support?
iPhone (iOS 17+). A native Mac companion app is in the works and follows the iPhone launch.
How does pre-ordering work?
Pre-ordering is free and takes one tap on SmartText's App Store page — nothing is charged. When SmartText releases in August 2026, it downloads to your iPhone automatically, so it's there the moment it goes live.

What is a virtual phone number?
A real phone number that works alongside your personal number for sending and receiving texts. Use it for dating, business, Craigslist, job postings — without giving out your real number.
Privacy & Security
Does SmartText sell my data?
No. No ads, no third-party ad trackers, and no selling your data — and we never use your messages to train AI models. Every AI request routes through shared API keys so no personal data is attached.
Is my conversation data stored?
Your messages are stored securely for service delivery. Screenshots are processed in real-time. We never share your conversations with advertisers or data brokers.
Can the AI models see who I am?
No. All AI requests go through shared API keys with no user identification. The models have no idea who you are.
