What is the point of the Google Voice Callback app when the official Google Voice app can make outgoing calls now via the GV number? The callback app is not even needed anymore right?
I have a plan with friends/family lines that I can add. I put my GV number on there, so I can just use Google Voice to call out now for free right? I don't see why the 3rd party callback app is needed anymore.
Please help clarify this for me. Thank you.
Nevermind, just checked my Usage details with my provider. It looks like all outgoing calls via the Google Voice app go through a generic Google number (504-252-0100), which is not my GV number, thus not being counted as a Friends/Family call. OK, guess it's time to reinstall Google Voice callback. Bummer.
is there any app that can save predefined voice commands for my contacts like the "stupid"phones did? (like you recored the sample and you have to say something similar to the sample to dial)
because in android voice dialing dowsn't recognise my language and therefore i can't use it. i don't need "where's the nearest restaurant" or similar things, only voice dialing by prerecorded commands
thanks!

You can try this app. It's paid but does exactly what you want.
Does someone know if there is an app where it is possible to assign name read by user to a person in contact list, and then when you activate voice dial your pronaunciation is recognized and propper person is dialed? Not one voice dial app works with my language because pronauncitions are very different from english. Not to mention nicknames. Thanks!
For some reason any text message opens in the messaging app only, any way to at least have an option to use Google Voice?

if your saying use google voice in text messaging app then you can change keyboard to google voice
if your saying for google voice to read your text messages then i dont think thats posible yet,
excuse me for misunderstanding what you wrote doesnt make much sense to me
Sorry, I should clarify... I'm trying to make Google Voice as a "messaging" option on my phone. For example, if the phone recognizes a number and gives me an option to call or text, I'd like to be able to text via Google Voice; right now only the messenger app opens.

i dont think that can be done on a z2' i think a nexus can because its got that google now direct acesss
My old Samsung could do it, the phone just recognizes a second option for messaging (similar to having multiple browsers and clicking a hyperlink). Just not sure about now. Maybe if I uninstall/install?...

Yo have to say "send text to xx" and then google voice ask you, what you want to say in the message.

If you're up to KitKat, the option to have Google Voice as a default SMS app has been removed......GV and Hangouts are supposed to be merged at some point, eliminating the need for separate apps.
After recieving the new Google Voice update, I now receive text messages from Google Voice and the default messaging app.
I do not see a way in the Google Voice app to disable text messaging. I only use Google Voice for voicemail. I do not use it as my primary phone number.
Anyone know how to disable this?

The only thing I can think of is to turn notifications off on g voice, but I'm unsure if you'll still receive vm notifications then. I'm currently trying to figure out how to text with stock messaging app as gv number, but there's all these limitations and whatnot. They really need to start providing some better integration and support for gv overall, without Hangouts. Hope this helps somehow.
