How many times has your phone buzzed in the evenings or on the weekends, just to find out it’s your boss “just checking in” on that so-called urgent project? Sometimes duty calls, but so does your work-life balance.

If you’re always thinking about getting a separate phone for work but ultimately don’t want the hassle and expense of separate devices, just get Hushed. It’s a second phone number app that keeps your work and personal lives separate. Use code HOLIDAY20 at checkout to get a lifetime subscription for $ 19.99 (reg. $ 150) through Nov. 10.

The app that lets you clock out even when your boss doesn’t

Start by telling your boss and coworkers you got a new phone number so they know where to reach you — and so they stop blowing up your real number. You’ll even get to choose the area code of your Hushed number and record a custom voicemail.

Just open the Hushed app on your iPhone or Android to text or make phone calls. This is also where you’ll chat with your nosey boss or coworkers when they try bugging you outside of work.

This lifetime phone plan includes 6,000 SMS or 1,000 phone minutes per year. While that’s hopefully enough for your after-hours work, plans with higher limits are also available.

Unlike purchasing a separate phone contract, using the Hushed app on your phone simply uses your existing mobile data or WiFi — no extra fees are needed. This means Hushed could work well as a travel phone number for your next international trip.

Plus, if you’re ever in another situation where you don’t want to give out your real number — like when selling something online or meeting someone at a bar — just give them your Hushed number. It’s so handy. 

Get a second phone number with Hushed while they’re only $ 19.99 with code HOLIDAY20 at checkout (reg. $ 150) until November 10 at 11:59 p.m. PT.
