As I say, I use computers not smart phones. I tried an Android phone 4
years ago, when it died I got a simple cell phone. That one just died

Just for the record, if you are willing to go to Verizon, you can get a
prepaid card that cost $100 and is good for a year. For your $100 you
get about 400 minutes on their simple phone. Mine is a Samsung Gusto
that can be purchased at Walmart for about $20.

For me the 400 minutes last me for a year that I get to carry over to
the next card. So my simple cell phone is costing me less that $10 per
month.

I can even send text messages if I ever take the time to figure it out.
I know I can receive Text messages as I occasionally get one from my
daughter
