Gyah, my android messaging experience is so confused! Has anyone else managed to get a nice experience with Google Voice? What's your set up? Last I checked, hangouts still sends SMS under your real phone number, not the GV one. Is that still the case?
I also tried tossing in TextSecure at one point, and now sometimes I get texts there, sometimes Hangouts, sometimes neither.... Sigh.
- cevn 12y agoHangouts integrated with GV! Or at least it did for me, it was a month or two ago. It still has some annoying usability aspects compared to the old GV app but I can at least send and receive texts to my GV number in hangouts.
- fournm 12y agoIf you want to make it explicit, you can set up Hangouts to move your actual phone number to a separate "account" for only SMS, which leaves the only phone number from your gmail as your GV number. It's worked pretty well for me, at least on Android. The Hangouts replacement for the web client is garbage, though.
