*SLYNUMBER can be used to activate and verify the above mentioned apps, whereas VoIP numbers cannot.
The main difference between SLYNUMBER and Hushed is that SLYNUMBER provides real mobile numbers while Hushed numbers are VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol). In fact, SLYNUMBER is the only second number provider outside of the big three carriers (Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile) to offer real mobile numbers. While this doesn't affect basic features such as calling and texting, using a VoIP number may cause issues with online service activations or verifications. VoIP numbers are often not recognized as real numbers, leading to rejections from many online services and apps. On the other hand, mobile numbers are universally trusted and can be used for any purpose such as online banking, social media, dating and more.
SLYNUMBER's emphasis on privacy and security is also noteworthy, with features designed to protect your personal information. SLYNUMBER is not associated with any name, address, or billing information. No reverse look-up tool can reveal the owner of the number. It is completely anonymous. In contrast, Hushed's privacy features are more basic.
In addition, SLYNUMBER's customer service is another strong point, offering prompt and helpful support, while some users have reported issues with Hushed's customer service.
Lastly, SLYNUMBER is more cost-effective, providing more value for the price - only $2.99/mo!
