One-tap burn
Learn more about One-tap burnOne tap ends the number. Forwarding stops, history stays, and the number rests before release.
Decide what each number does, and who sold it
Every number has a mode that says whether calls get through, and a label that says where you handed it out. The call count shows which label is getting the calls.
How it works
Pick a number
Open any number in your account.
Choose a mode
Forward, Texts only or Block. The change applies to that number only.
Add a label
Name it after where you handed it out, for example "Car dealer".
Check the count
Each number shows how many calls it took in the last 30 days.
The three modes
| Mode | Calls | Texts | Minutes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Forward | Ring your confirmed mobile | Arrive in the inbox | Answered calls count |
| Texts only | Not forwarded | Arrive in the inbox | None used |
| Block | Not forwarded | Not delivered | None used |
Switch a number to Texts only when you still need its codes but no longer want the calls. Switch it to Block when you want neither.
Labels and call counts
A label is a name you give a number, such as "Car dealer". The dashboard shows how many calls each number took in the last 30 days, so you can see which label is attracting calls, and who may have sold or shared the number.

Questions
What is the difference between Texts only and Block?
Texts only keeps the inbox working: texts arrive, calls are not forwarded, and no minutes are used. Block turns off both calls and texts.
What does the call count show?
How many calls the number took in the last 30 days, next to its label, so you can see which place you handed the number out is getting calls.
Get a number you can throw away
Receive-only US numbers. Calls ring your phone, texts land in a web inbox, and one tap burns the number.
