FREE TRACFONE BALANCE APP

I have added the tracfone balance app to my phone but I don’t believe it shows in "real time" what my balance is.  If I click on "Balance" it sends me a text message with my balance.  Is that how it is suppose to work or am I doing something wrong?  Any help would be apprecaited!  Thank you!

Thank you for bumping up this message.  I just bought 3 TracFones for my family and was surprised that the balance and service days did not display on the home screen.  Now I have hubby loading the app — problem solved!

Why would you need to download a "Balance APP"? I am told that a prepaid cell phones, regardless of service provider has a balance link already on the phone.

Ther’es an app for everything, why not have a "Do you really need this app?"

These things just add unnessessary icons to a phone, apps that run continuously taking up battery usage.

having trouble downloading any balance app to my phone

Search Google Play Store for “Balance Tracfone” Free App/Widget for your home screen. Works great.

And you will still come up with “Tracfone My Account App” as posted before. WELCOME to the forums!o:)

Just saw this today through FB – yay! I hadn’t been back to the forum for a while ;-( Thank you, GardenMama for all the info! I am liking my phone more and more every time I use it, which is not every day, which is why I’m kind of behind ;-( I had an accident two weeks ago and have been off work since, so have lots of time on my hands to read the manual, etc.

Works great.

Sounded good to me too but, while it gave me my phone number etc and would let me add a card pin all I got when I hit balance was OOPS server error…..well by the time I did that I could go to the computer and check out my minutes. So I dumped it.
I don’t know where the data usage warning came from either I have plenty of data minutes left…
Haven’t given out my new number to only about 3 people I really need to get the number to the doctors and other places besides family and friends….Since phone problems in the last 3 weeks my son (next of kin) Has gotten a lot of calls wondering about me…..lol

Then today I got a call from my sister in law and found out that I don’t know how to answer the phone.
With my Lg slider I just slid it open and said hello….I don’t know how to answer the phone……
I am going to go read the book….lol

You all are very welcome. Like Keriga said, we are all in this together & helping each other out is what it is all about!:d/
