I'm on such an old plan that DIGITS was included. The other perk is that you can install DIGITS on your tablet as well as use a web-based version on a laptop, too.

And a warning/FYI... while you can send/receive text messages on the DIGITS app to/from regular phone numbers, you will not receive any two-factor authentication text messages.
After reading about digits online, I was concerned that once you provision your number to digits, it’s there permanently and can’t go back to your SIM card
