Inmate Text App
Inmate texting apps are a great way to stay in contact with a loved one or friend who is currently in prison. These apps have been specifically made to be compliant with prison regulations and permit family members and friends to send and receive messages, photos, eCards, video calls, and even money to their trust account in prison. In addition to these messaging apps, there are also numerous federal inmate apps that offer additional services like video visitation and phone calls.
JPay, for example allows family and friends to transfer money directly into an inmate’s trust account as well as emails, photos, videograms, and electronic cards. You can also design personalized text inmate postcards with their own images. It's a safer and more secure alternative to regular mail.
Another popular inmate text app is GettingOut that provides "simple and reliable communication" between inmates and their loved family members. The app, which is available in select correctional facilities, allows inmates to upload photos and message their family and friends on their tablets. It costs inmates $0.25 a message and loved ones pay for the information that is used to read their messages (but not for explicit photos). The GettingOut app can be used to upload photos to Facebook or Foursquare, check-in to Foursquare and also add the option of a YouTube video.
