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.

Is Google Voice legit?
⚠️ The Google Voice app has poor ratings and negative feedback. Users seem unsatisfied with its performance or features.
This application is a disappointment. Most messages sent from Google voice website are not reflected here. The notification count is overstating unread messages. I have the use the web version as this application is not keeping up
Love it
I really like this app. I used this app for my iPad. I like it becau I’m able to have another to use as like a “house phone”. Only thing that annoys me is the app randomly switches to mobile data and I have it on WiFi. Other than that great to use when your phone cuts off or your trying to catch your boyfriend/girlfriend in a lie!
App works very well. Two feature requests.
App works very well overall. Have been using for years and it’s smooth and bug-free.
Two requests:
1. Ability to mark a text thread unread.
2. Texts should alert you more than once.
Thanks!
I can’t even claim a number
Been trying to claim a number for a couple months now, I have a linked number, and have done everything required. Yet every time I try to claim a google number it always says “Something went wrong, please try again later”. So disappointed. I’d love to use a google voice number, if only I was able to
Something Went Wrong
Try again later. That is the pop up dialog box I get when trying to use the app. I've deleted the app then downloaded it again only to have the dialog box appear again. Any gremlins running in the background?
Will not link
Linked once, would not assign number. Told to use someone else’s #? Forget it!
Unreliable
My account was suspended and now it’s been over a week and I haven’t heard back.
Mark Unread
Would it be possible to add a mark unread feature?
App is slow and freezes
The app is terrible. It constantly freezes.

Zero stars if could. I been trying for WEEKS to get a google number it never goes through. Come on bro. I linked a number and everything and try to get a new number, it DOESNT WORK. It still says I don’t have a google number
