About this app

Google Voice gives you a phone number for calling, text messaging and voicemail. It works on smartphones and computers, and syncs across your devices so that you can use the app in the office, at home or on the go.

NOTE: Google Voice only works for personal Google Accounts in the US and Google Workspace accounts in select markets. Text messaging is not supported in all markets.

You're in control
Get spam filtered automatically and block numbers that you don’t want to hear from. Manage your time with personalised settings for forwarding calls, text messages and voicemail.

Backed up and searchable
Calls, text messages and voicemails are stored and backed up to make it easy for you to search your history.

Manage messages across devices
Send and receive individual and group SMS messages from all your devices.

Your voicemail, transcribed
Google Voice provides advanced voicemail transcriptions that you can read in the app and/or have sent to your email.

Save on international calling
Make international calls at competitive rates without paying extra for international minutes with your mobile operator.

Keep in mind:
• Google Voice is currently only available in the US. Google Voice for Google Workspace users is available in select countries. Check with your administrator for access.
• Calls made using Google Voice for Android can be placed through a Google Voice access number. All access number-based calls use the standard minutes from your mobile phone plan and may incur costs (e.g. when travelling internationally).

Great app! I've used it for years now instead of my service provider's features and my phone's installed messaging app. I do wish, however, that... 1- The Contacts would show the full info/profile when you look up a contact, and 2- A text by voice can be initiated when using Android Auto instead of only being able to respond to a text. (THIS would truly eliminate the need to even touch my phone while driving -- which would also eliminate the need for an ugly phone holder.)

It's generally reliable and as good as it gets for a VOIP service. Thank you for the free phone number. Otherwise, I find the interface is too segmented for calls and texting - would be great to see call and text history at the same time. Web Interface is the same, too fragmented. Seems like it is not really improved or "updated" much ...? And, updating contacts must be done outside of the Voice app... It's Very clunky to update or search for contacts.

After 15+ years using this app I still can't set it as my default messenger app. Can anyone shed some light on that. I used to be able to set a custom notification or ring tone, somewhere along the way that feature was removed. Can someone tell me how to set, change, modify, or add a ring / notification tone for incoming messages. Update: Thanks for the fast response but your instructions do not accurately display the features in the app. 'Incoming call notification" does not exist as instructed
