App for a Temporary Number for Travel Planning

vtorosort

I’m organizing a big trip with a group of friends and need a separate phone number to handle all the planning details, like booking confirmations and group chats, without cluttering my personal number. Is there an app that offers a temporary or additional number that’s easy to use and works well for both calls and texts? It’d be great if it’s affordable and can be deactivated after the trip. Any advice?

I’ve been running a small online store, and managing customer queries with my personal number became overwhelming. While looking for a solution, I found this incredible thread: https://ask.metafilter.com/37512 ... fferent-cell-number. The suggestions there were clear and detailed, and I decided on Google Voice. It’s free, easy to use, and keeps my work-life balance intact. That resource was such a big help!
