It can be pretty frustrating when you're trying to text in an area with inexplicably bad data reception, but if you happen to be somewhere with access to a hotspot, the Three inTouch lets you text using wifi instead.
The Three inTouch works in tandem for customers with the Three app, meaning that there is no need for additional logins or passwords. When you're in an area with wifi, Three UK users are able to make calls and texts using their Three number and all communications will be charged according to a customer's monthly plan or Pay-as-You-Go credit. The app is a free download for Three customers, which means that there will be lots more opportunity for people to send texts without the worry of sucking up data.
