How Google Voice Works:

Imagine a personal answering service, but better. Google Voice uses a single, free number to route calls to all your linked devices. Customize call routing by contact and time of day – send friend's calls to your smartphone, while routing work calls to voicemail after hours. Record calls with a simple button press, and save them indefinitely. Voicemails are automatically transcribed and delivered to your chosen devices. The app also features built-in spam call filtering and number blocking capabilities. Furthermore, you can easily manage call forwarding, text messaging, and voicemail settings.

1. Download and install the Google Voice app.
2. Sign in with your Google account.
3. Choose a phone number, filtering by city or area code.
4. Verify your selection.
5. Link your existing mobile number (if prompted) and verify with the provided code.
6. Grant access to your contacts for seamless integration.
