Google Voice is now for iPhone

Earlier this year, the Google Voice HTML5 web app was launched for iPhone users. Today , the official Google Voice app for iPhone has been released for American users .

All major Google Voice features are available in the iPhone app:

• cheap rates for international calls;
• Free text messages to US numbers;
• voice mail recording;
• Displays the Google Voice user number as caller ID when making calls.

There are also some more nice features:

• instant notification of new voice and text messages;
• most calls will go through direct access numbers , which will allow users to connect as fast as with regular phone calls.

Google Voice for iPhone is available for download from the Apple App Store . To use it, you need an iPhone with iOS version 3.1 or higher and an account in  Google Voice . Let me remind you that currently, Google Voice, alas, is available only in the United States.
