    If you're talking about the voice app for cellphones, I use it and it works well.

    I use Google Voice just because of its ability to screen callers and the ability to simultaneously ring multiple phones as well as its ability to selectively ring phones based on time of day. I can get you an invite if needed. I think if you have a GMail account, you can get an invite by yourself.

    Thanks

    WOW... I really am beginning to like this...

    I just was able to print out a nasty voicemail from the ex... and I can archive it for later to bundle with other crap that makes my life go round, like the communications from my broker or the banks (that at times, there has been some conflicting comments on instructions)... now I wont have that problem...

    Thank you my fellow member for including me...

    Personally I think Google voice sucks!
    It would work much better if the transcription actually resembled the message from the originator of the message ! If I could get rid of it I would, I have to call people back just because the message was so garbled. Complete waste of my time!

    You can listen to the recorded message when it is unreadable.
