FaxTerra
Help Center·Reviewed August 2026

The FaxTerra mobile app

FaxTerra has an app for iPhone and Android so you can send and receive faxes from your phone — including faxing a photo you just took.

1

What the app does

The app does what the website does, in your pocket: send a fax, watch its status, and — with a subscription — receive faxes to your own number. It is especially handy for faxing a document you have as a photo, since you can send a picture straight from your phone.

2

One account, web and phone

The app and the website are the same account. Sign in on your phone with Google or Apple, or a code emailed to you, and you see the same faxes, number, and plan as on the web. Anything you send on one shows up on the other.

3

Buying on a phone

When you buy a subscription or a pack of pages inside the app, the purchase goes through the App Store (iPhone) or Google Play (Android), and you manage it there. A subscription bought in the app is canceled from your App Store or Google Play settings rather than the website. See managing your account.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is there a FaxTerra app?

Yes — for iPhone and Android. It lets you send and receive faxes from your phone, including sending a photo you just took.

Is the app a separate account from the website?

No. It is the same account. Sign in on the app and you see the same faxes, fax number, and plan as on the web.

Will the app tell me when a fax arrives?

Yes, if you have your own fax number. The app sends a push notification when a fax arrives, alongside the email you would get anyway, so you do not have to keep opening your inbox. Those are the only two ways we notify you; FaxTerra never sends text messages.

How do I cancel a subscription I bought in the app?

Subscriptions bought inside the app are managed through your App Store (iPhone) or Google Play (Android) subscription settings, not the website.
