Additional Notes
Republic Wireless phones use the Republic Wireless app to manage the phone services we enjoy. Since many phones don't recognize our app as a native app or pre-installed app, having the Data Saver enabled or turned on may result in interference with texting, calling, data access, etc. For these reasons, if you experience any issues with calling/texting while Data Saver is enabled, we recommend disabling the data saving feature to see if it could be a part of the problem. This is especially true for third-party apps intended to regulate or reduce data usage.
