I was wondering if there was a way to get TextNow (the app, not on textnow.com) on Ubuntu Like through terminal. I don't want to download it wrong or anything, that is why I am asking you guys.

    You can try running it in Wine, but I don't think that'll work. – TheWanderer Oct 07 '15 at 00:34
  • You could always do it your self with nativefier if you have the time or someone else could. I will look into it my self as I was needing this on Linux and could not find an actual app, a Wrapper for the website is the next best thing. – Juliette Nov 18 '22 at 21:30

You can download the latest stable version of Google Chrome and then go to the Web Store and get it. I'm running it through Chrome just fine. When you get it, it will appear in your "Apps" portion of Chrome.

Anbox is an Android emulator I found that allows running Android Apps on any GNU/Linux operating system. It's available at https://anbox.io/ It's a snap package that installs via an installer script available here that does the heavy lifting for you.

Note that "THIS IS ALPHA LEVEL SOFTWARE. EXPECT INSTABILITY AND BUGS" If that doesn't dissuade you, give it a try and help out by reporting any bugs here.
