it's not as safe as a burner phone if your concern is your SO. Many, if not all, apps track your actual ID and your usage. If you end up in a divorce court and your SO attorney is thorough and extremely able then everything may come out against you as actual evidence.

Hey guys,
I'm sure lots of guys and gals have burner phones for obvious reasons, anyone try this app called Burner App ?
It supposedly will let you create fake numbers on your personal cell phone so you don't have to buy burner phones, but I think they may be a cost involved, I haven't downloaded it yet.

There are actually many burner phone type apps. (burner, pinger, hushed, line2, etc.) Hard to say which is better without trying them all. Most have a free version and a paid version. I personally have experience with google voice and pinger. I like them both. Haven't tried any others but imagine they are similar.

I have it and recommend it. Ya, there is a small cost involved, but I feel it is worth it. It has a lock feature that you should use, so only you can open the app.

... because none of what you say is accurate either from a legal or technological perspective.
It's way easy to use! I like it!
