You can use it on the cat s22 flip because you can download regular apps from the play store and true it only works through the app.
Incase you're wondering I used google parental controls to block all other apps and as far as the adds they don't show unless connected to wifi (except for adds from TextNow that say to upgrade).
Also it's supposed to say 5 dollars for a sim card (I'm not sure how to modify it).
