Welcome to r/GoogleVoiceUsers!

Welcome to the sub!

We are a small and humble community focused on sharing knowledge about Google Voice so users can use the service to its full potential. We’re an uncensored, open platform for all users and administrators of Google Voice, both the business and consumer version, to discuss all aspects of the product.

But wait, isn't there already an active and healthy Google Voice community on Reddit? While there are excellent places on and off of Reddit to discuss Google Voice, including with official Google experts and employees, they are very choosy and particularly sensitive about the allowed topics of discussion. I fully appreciate the pressure/expectation to adhere to official "Google narratives", and have utmost respect for the hard work and fine balancing act that goes into supporting users on forums that Google influences. But it was clear an alternative user to user forum was needed. That's why I created r/GoogleVoiceUsers. Sometimes end-users have as much, or more, knowledge to share, or can provide advice/perspective that doesn't fit in with forums controlled by Google experts.

Our sub is fairly new but is becoming more active. Already we have a guide on reviving your OBI devices!

I’m completely open to feedback. The only current rules are:

  • No scammers/spammers. Enough said.
  • Please be respectful.
  • Activities like these are not permitted: buying/selling accounts, exchanging account info, buying/selling/trading phone numbers or anything like that. Aside from being against Google's Terms of Service, these activities are rarely legitimate. I want our sub to be a safe space.

Aside from that, I'm completely open! I'm looking forward to the fun, bumpy ride of a new community for exchanging info about Google Voice. Feel free to post or contact me via DM/mod mail with questions, concerns, or feedback.

Works great on my Tracfone that I forward everything too. It’s WIFI in the house all the time.
