WIGGWIGG vs APhone

Name: WIGGWIGG
Author: WIGGWIGG

More than just virtual numbers

APhone provides virtual numbers from the US, Canada, and UK for business or personal use. It's a mobile-only app focused on giving you additional phone numbers. WIGGWIGG takes a different approach: Canadian phone numbers combined with a zero-knowledge encrypted password manager, full web app, and identity-based organization.

Why choose WIGGWIGG over APhone?

Identity infrastructure, not just numbers

APhone gives you numbers from three countries. WIGGWIGG organizes each number into an identity with its own encrypted password vault and contacts. Numbers are the starting point, not the whole product.

Canadian focus with depth

APhone spreads across US, Canada, and UK. WIGGWIGG focuses on Canadian numbers with local area codes, paired with identity management designed for how Canadians actually use second numbers.

Zero-knowledge encryption

APhone stores your account data on their servers in readable form. WIGGWIGG uses zero-knowledge encryption for identity data: passwords, contacts, and personal details are encrypted on your device. Communications are server-side encrypted on Canadian servers.

Full web app

APhone is mobile-only. WIGGWIGG has a full web app, so you can make calls from your laptop, manage passwords from any browser, and text without your phone.

Schedule and spam filter, not just DND

APhone's only documented call control is a Do Not Disturb toggle. WIGGWIGG ships per-day-of-week business hours with separate active and inactive actions, multiple prioritized rules, date-based holiday overrides, and a five-layer inbound spam filter with a per-call log.

Five inbound checks per call

APhone's docs don't surface any spam-detection or block-list feature. WIGGWIGG runs five inbound layers per call (STIR/SHAKEN, neighbor-spoof, carrier reputation, community signals, your block and allow lists) and shows you the verdict for each call.

Why invest in WIGGWIGG?

If you need virtual numbers from multiple countries, APhone covers US, Canada, and UK. But if you want your phone numbers, passwords, and contacts organized by identity with zero-knowledge encryption, WIGGWIGG is building that complete platform.

Numbers from three countries, or identity from one platform

APhone gives you numbers in the US, Canada, and UK. WIGGWIGG gives you Canadian numbers plus an encrypted identity layer, each number paired with its own password vault and contacts.

Funded by users, built for users

No venture capital, no growth targets from investors. WIGGWIGG is self-funded, so every decision weighs user privacy against nothing but user privacy.

Your data, encrypted on your terms

APhone stores your data on their servers. WIGGWIGG uses zero-knowledge encryption for identity data: passwords, contacts, and personal details are encrypted on your device. We can't read your identity data, and neither can anyone who breaches our servers.

Canadian roots, bilingual product

APhone is not a Canadian company. WIGGWIGG is built in Quebec, governed by PIPEDA, with full English and French support from day one.

Inbound checks plus scheduled routing

APhone is a thin virtual-number layer with little call-control. WIGGWIGG combines a five-layer inbound filter with per-day-of-week business hours, multiple prioritized rules, and date-based overrides, so the gate and the schedule live on the same screen.

Frequently Asked Questions

APhone offers US, Canadian, and UK numbers. Does WIGGWIGG?

WIGGWIGG focuses on Canadian numbers with local area codes. We don't offer US or UK numbers. If you need numbers in multiple countries, APhone covers more ground. If you want Canadian numbers with encrypted identity management, WIGGWIGG goes deeper.

I just need a number for business. Is APhone enough?

For a simple business number, APhone works. If you also want that number paired with a password vault for your business accounts, separate contacts, and zero-knowledge encryption, WIGGWIGG combines all of that in one place.

Does WIGGWIGG have a free tier?

Yes. 2 free identities with full password manager functionality. For phone numbers, we offer a 7-day free trial, then each number is $7/month. APhone doesn't offer a free tier.

Can I use WIGGWIGG without a phone?

Yes. WIGGWIGG's web app lets you make calls, send texts, and manage passwords from any browser. You don't need a phone at all. APhone is mobile-only.

Does APhone block spam calls?

APhone's docs don't surface a spam-detection feature or a built-in block list. WIGGWIGG runs five inbound layers on every call (STIR/SHAKEN, neighbor-spoof, carrier reputation, community signals, your personal block and allow lists) and surfaces a per-call filter log so you can see exactly why a call was flagged.

Can I set business hours on my APhone number?

APhone's only documented call control is a Do Not Disturb toggle. WIGGWIGG ships per-day-of-week business hours with separate active and inactive actions (forward, voicemail, auto-reply, reject), per-contact-label rules, and date-based holiday overrides, all encrypted at rest.
