Text messaging is perhaps the most popular way to communicate with friends and family in the world. The iPhone has the built-in Messages app, but what if you don't like it? And what about the iPod Touch? It has no phone.

Textfree – FREE iPhone & iPod Touch SMS with Textie
In either case, you're in luck. Since texting is so popular, there are a bunch of great free texting apps for the iPhone and iPod Touch. These are especially great if you have a Touch because many assign you a "phone number" that you can use to send and receive texts, pictures, and more.
These apps are free — so what's the catch? Many of these free apps contain tons of ads, but that's probably a minor annoyance in exchange for unlimited texting (in-app purchases often remove ads and unlock additional features). Keep in mind that you need to connect your iPod Touch to a Wi-Fi network to use these texting apps.
What's App is perhaps the most used texting app in the world, which is one reason Facebook bought it for $19 billion in 2014.
