Inmate Text App
If you have a family member who is imprisoned, the best option to stay in touch is via an inmate-texting application. These apps are designed to comply with prison rules which allow family and friends to send messages, photos videos, eCards, video calls and even money to their trust accounts in prison. In addition to these messaging apps, there are also a number of federal inmate apps that offer additional services like video visitation and phone calls.
The JPay application, for example allows family and friends to transfer money into the trust account of an inmate as well as email, photos videos, eCards, and eCards. It also lets users create personalized postcards with their own images. And it provides a safer and more secure alternative to traditional mail.
Another popular texting app for prisoners is GettingOut. It offers "simple reliable and safe communication" between inmates with their loved ones. The app, available in select correctional facilities, allows inmates to upload photos and message their families and friends via their tablets. It costs inmates $0.25 for a message, and loved ones pay for the information that is used to read their messages (but not for explicit images). You can also make use of the GettingOut application to share a photo on Facebook or Foursquare and check-in on Foursquare and then add a video to upload to YouTube upload.
