PHONE for Google Voice & GTalk app review: free calls to GTalk users and phone numbers within the US and Canada

Reviews

Introduction

With free calls and text messaging to any phone number within the United States or Canada, or any GTalk user around the world, this app provides a fantastic option for saving both time and money when it comes to communicating with your friends and family from across the globe.

The best call blocking apps for iPhone

Over the past year or so, I’ve found myself using more and more Google services such as Gmail, GTalk, and Google Docs. It seems only logical that I would make the jump over to an app such as this, especially seeing as I’ll now be able to call my friends in Canada for free!

Keeping in line with the Google theme, the interface in this app looks great and is very easy to navigate. You’ll find all the buttons you need within the home screen, including the option to invite friends to use this app via GTalk, email, and text message. It's arguablly the best iPhone VOIP app for Google users.

Your New All-in-One Phone Service

This app syncs with your iPhone Contacts in order to provide a seamless transition over to the service as a replacement for your regular phone call provider, and this makes it very quick and easy when you want to call or send a text to someone who isn’t currently using PHONE for Google Voice & GTalk.

Another cool feature enables you to tap the phone icon in the top right-hand corner of the home screen and change your status between Available, Busy, and Offline. You can also set up your own Google phone number from here so that people can get in touch with you more easily.

Final Words

The developer really has done a great job of providing existing Google and Gmail users with a single one-stop resource and tool for making calls, sending text messages, and managing contacts in a largely free service.

PHONE for Google Voice & GTalk is far from being a bundle of nicely packaged promises.

The call quality is second-to-none, at least on my Internet connection, and the overall quality of the service is so good that I had to double check that it wasn’t Google itself that developed this app!
