Overview

Google Voice is one of the decent VoIP apps in the market today. Just like other similar apps like Viber Messanger, Discord, and Facebook Messenger, Google Voice delivers the same range of services. The core function of Google Voice is to provide call forwarding, voicemail services, voice, and text messaging. Interestingly, since Google Voice is a VoIP service, it works solely over the Internet. You can, however, use the service as long as you are connected via the Internet anytime and anywhere. You only need a microphone and a speaker to use this application so you can seamlessly use it either via smartphone or other devices like a laptop.

How does Google Voice work?

Using the Google Voice app is not really complicated at all. Simply download the app either from the Google Play Store or the Apple App Store to get started. This app works over a broadband connection that allows you to stay connected either to your home or office network. Google Voice, much like most of the Google Products, is notable for its simplicity. It welcomes you with a simple user interface that you can easily navigate and explore. Once downloaded, you will be asked to sign up for an account using your phone number or better yet create one your own. You can simply input your area code and the phone number of your choice.

Once done, you can now embrace the app’s overwhelming features such as creating voicemail messages, making calls, or use the service to send and receive text messages. Google Voice comes with a great number of noteworthy features you can take advantage of. For instance, this app allows you to get personalized settings for forwarding calls, text messages, and voicemails. Users can also engage in international calls at a very affordable rate.
