Mike LeBrun (ID: 0000002283af7dff) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 11/23/2022 I tried both the android app and the browser extension. It will not send me a code to log in or call my number with the code. Not sure what the problem is but it sure isn't working for me. It really just makes things harder especially in todays age where you absolutely have to have a cellphone in order to do anything anymore, so when you break your phone like I have done, you are in for a world of hurt and a long road to get back to anything resembling a normal life. Cellphones are going to ruin us, trust me and I am not a doomsday person or anything ;like that.

Tank Shake (ID: 000000847828b062) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 10/11/2022 Works great for its purpose. Makes it easy for me so I don't have to remember any of the burner numbers by heart and can use them all the time at places where I actually need them the most (online and in my browser).
