T-Mobile announced a beta test for its DIGITS service last year, and at long last the beta is over. DIGITS will roll out to all subscribers on May 31st, and it's free to use with your current mobile number. If you want multiple numbers (or DIGITS as T-Mobile insists on calling them), that'll cost you $10 per month.

DIGITS works in two ways: you can have multiple numbers on a single phone or a single number on multiple phones. The latter will be available to everyone for free. Simply activate your number on another connected device and your calls and SMS will be delivered there. It also works on a computer. If you want a second number to use with DIGITS, it'll cost you $10 per month. That way you can have personal and work numbers that go to the same phone. Businesses can even use DIGITS to rout calls to a number to multiple people. A family could move their home landline number to DIGITS and have it ring everyone in the house.

When DIGITS goes live, it will automatically be integrated in the ONE Plus add-on plan. If you already pay for that plan, you'll get a second DIGITS number for free. The DIGITS app is already in the Play Store from the beta period. You'll need that as soon as the service launches.
