Google Voice Review

 

Google Voice is a revamping of the GrandCentral service that Google acquired in 2007. It aims at allowing users to manage their communication channels better, through Unified Communications. Google have reworked the service that GrandCentral once offered, with many improvements and features.

Bottom Line

Google Voice gives you a local phone number, of your choice, which can call up to six phones simultaneously. These can be your office phone, mobile phone, mobile phone, SIP phone etc. The cost of international calls in among the most competitive. Google Voice has also added more features, like voice to text transcription of voicemails and call recording, among others. On the downside, two of the main things to note is that it is more focused on incoming calls and as a result, many features don’t work with outgoing calls; and you cannot port your existing number to Google. On the whole, it is a nice service of which everyone will want to have an account (just like Gmail), especially since it is free.

Pros

• Unified communications through one single phone number.
• Voice to text transcription of voicemails.
• Free calls to the US. Competitive rates for outgoing international calls.
• Free service, open to anyone.
• Many interesting features, including call recording, conferencing etc.

Cons

• Existing phone number cannot be ported to Google Voice. (Update: this is changing soon)
• Available only for users in the US, as calls cannot be forwarded abroad.
• Outgoing calls cannot be recorded.

Review

The greatest thing about this service is the possibility to unify your communication needs – be called on different phones through one single phone number. Upon registration, you get a phone number from Google, which your contacts can use to call up to six of your phones and contact channels. Configuration, like forwarding etc. can be done on your phone itself.
The cost is interesting. Outgoing calls to US numbers are free. This is an improvement on GrandCentral, which only allowed you to receive calls. You can use the Google Voice service to make international calls to mobile and landline phones at very competitive rates. These are among the cheapest in the industry, hovering around a couple of dollar cents per minute for popular destinations.
The other great thing about the service is voice transcription. Google Voice is to voicemail what Gmail is to email. Google Voice transcripts your voice messages into text messages, allowing you to read them. This means that you no longer have to listen to the voice messages in order – this requires some patience, doesn’t it? You don’t even need to listen to them at all if you don’t want to. Treat them as text messages. This also implies that you can search, sort, save, forward, copy and paste the voice messages. Now, the big question on the efficiency of voice-to-text transcription arises. As you know, since human speech is so varied in accent, pronunciation and intonation, ambiguity always arises during transcription. While certain errors can be tolerated, others might turn a whole world upside down. Imagine ‘can’t’ being written as ‘can’! This is something to bear with.
You can have call conferences with the service. Up to 4 persons can talk at the same time. That is, you have to get the four persons call you and they can all be housed into the call.
The call recording feature is very nice. By pressing a single button (digit 4) on an incoming call, you can start the recording of the call, and stop it on a new press of the same button. This is great for business people and especially podcasters. However, since the service is more focused on the incoming side of calls, recording outgoing calls isn’t possible (yet?).
This service gets you started with a brand new number, and, inconveniently for some, you cannot port your existing phone number to it. Those who have been building up habit, trust and reachability upon one number will have to leave that number behind if they switch to Google Voice. (Update: this is changing soon, as Google is working on number portability)
Also calls cannot be forwarded beyond the US, and it works only with numbers in the US. This is a major limitation, and I hope the service gets extended to the whole world.
Other features include the screening of callers, listening before taking a call, call blocking, sending and receiving SMS, voicemail notifications and other related features, directory assistance, group management, and call switching.
In order to get a Google Voice number, you need to request an invitation. Go to the Google Voice invitation page and submit your email address. Some time later, you will receive an email requesting you to register. As I write this, only US residents are being given numbers. Google say they are working on numbers for other people.

The Most Useful Android Apps This Year; Have You Got to Play with Them?

When it comes to the matter of smartphone apps, nothing can beat the iPhone App store. But the Android Market also has more than enough apps to overwhelm you. You might have your own favorite Android smartphone apps. But if you are a bit confused with all the different apps available this year, you can check out our list of 15 of the most useful ones.

Google Voice

Considered by some as one of the top benefits of Android, the Google Voice app gives you a phone number that you can use to ring to multiple places or devices. It also lets you access all of your voicemail and text messages from the Web.

Advanced Task Killer

Most of the smartphones available on the market comes with great multitasking capabilities. But this makes it important for all users to manage their apps so that they don’t hurt the performance of the device or its battery life. That is why it really helps to have an app like the Advanced Task Killer (ATK).
This app provides you with a widget that you can tap once to kill all open apps. The killing can also be done at periodic intervals. You just have to set up ATK to do so.

Dropbox

Dropbox is a cloud service that automatically syncs a folder of files between multiple computers. The Dropbox app extends this service to Android and interacts with other apps to open files such as PDFs, image files, and business documents.

Evernote

Evernote is a great note-taking app. This app will be very useful to you, provided you are used to typing on a virtual keyboard.

Taskos

Although there are many to-do apps available on the Android Market, many prefer this app because of the clean, easy, Android-friendly user experience. One of the biggest advantages of using Taskos is that it comes with voice recognition. You just have to speak a task and the app turns it into a to-do item.

DroidAnalytics

We are not sure why Google hasn’t created an official app for Google Analytics, either for Android or iPhone. One of the best Android ones available is DroidAnalytics.

Documents To Go

There is a free version of this app available which offers a great little reader for Microsoft Word and Excel files. But for $15 you can upgrade to the full version which will allow you to create and edit files and also add PowerPoint files to the mix.

Google Docs

If you are a fan of Google Docs, then this is the only app you need. But the only annoying thing is that it always opens up files in a web browser rather than within the app itself.

Tripit

Tripit is the best Android app available for keeping track of all your travel itineraries. You just have to forward your confirmation emails for your flights, hotels, and more to this app and it automatically organizes them into trips with all your details and confirmation numbers.

Places

If you have trouble finding shops and services near your current location, we recommend this app. This app helps you to find restaurants, medical facilities, taxis and much more. The app takes advantage of the information from Google Local and is better than any of the similar iPhone apps.

Astro File Manager

This app lets you navigate the Android file system. It can be really handy once in a while. It helps manage pictures, music, videos and many other files on your device.

Speed Test

If you are someone who is obsessed with running speed tests all the time to check the quality of Wi-Fi, you better try the Speedtest.net app. This is one of the best speed test apps available. It comes with some of the best graphics and options.

Amazon Kindle

Even those who haven’t gotten used to the Amazon Kindle e-reader are big fans of the Kindle mobile app. Since you will always have your smartphone with you, installing this app will help you to read a few pages of your favourite book anytime you get a couple of minutes free.

Google+

One of the smartest things that Google did was that it had released a Google+ Android app at the same time it launched Google+ as a beta. The app was pretty handy and it became one of the most used mobile apps.

TED Air

The TED conference is a meeting of some of the greatest thinkers of society. The talks are very important since it touches some of the society’s biggest challenges. Fortunately, they have taken the videos from the conference and those are available on the internet for free. The TED Air app helps us to access the videos on a mobile device.
