Terms of Service

We may update these terms at any time. When we make changes, we will update the date at the top of this page. Continued use of the website after changes are posted means you accept the updated terms.

What This Website Is

Inmate Text App is an independent information directory. We help families, friends, and legal contacts find communication options at correctional facilities across the United States.

This website:

• Provides general information about inmate communication services
• Lists and compares providers such as JPay, CorrLinks, ConnectNetwork, and others
• Describes correctional facilities and the communication options available at them
• Publishes guides and educational content about prison communication

This website does not:

• Send or receive messages on behalf of inmates or their contacts
• Access inmate accounts or prison management systems
• Process payments for any communication service
• Facilitate direct communication between inmates and anyone outside
• Replace any official communication provider or prison service

Informational Use Only

All content on this website is provided for general informational purposes. Information about facilities, providers, pricing, and communication rules may change at any time without notice.

Always verify current information directly with the correctional facility or communication provider before making decisions or spending money based on anything you read here.

No Legal Advice

Nothing on this website is legal advice. We are not attorneys. We do not have a legal relationship with you. If you have legal questions about an incarcerated person, their rights, their case, or how to communicate with them in a legal context, consult a licensed attorney in the appropriate jurisdiction.

No Relationship with Correctional Authorities

Inmate Text App has no affiliation with any federal, state, or local correctional facility, Department of Corrections, county jail, detention center, the Federal Bureau of Prisons, or any inmate communication provider.

We cannot contact facilities on your behalf, influence communication policies, resolve account issues with providers, or intervene in any matter involving an incarcerated individual.
