A Google Voice alternative, wherever you are.
Google Voice is a long-term US number tied to your Google account, and setting it up needs an existing US phone number. vSMS works wherever you are: pick a country, receive the code, and keep your own number out of it.
Built for the code, not the conversation.
No US number needed
Sign in with Apple or e-mail and choose a number in the country you need.
Not tied to your Google account
Your codes stay in vSMS, away from the account you use for everything else.
Numbers picked for delivery
Each app is routed to the mobile operators with the best delivery record, every country shows a delivery rating, and many routes offer real-SIM numbers from named mobile carriers.
No code, no charge
If a code doesn't arrive in time, your credits come back automatically, with nothing to request.
Both have their place.
- A free number you keep, tied to your Google account.
- Calls, texts and voicemail on your other devices.
Choose Google Voice when you live in the US, want a free number for the long term, and are happy to tie it to your Google account.
- No US number needed
- Not tied to your Google account
- Numbers picked for delivery

Choose vSMS when you're outside the US, don't want the code linked to your Google account, or need a number in a specific country.
