Apple Approves Official Google Voice App for iPhone

Nov 16, 2010, 1:53 PM by Eric M. Zeman

Apple recently approved the official Google Voice application for the iPhone. Earlier this year, Apple approved several third-party Google Voice applications, but this app is the one made by Google itself. The app, which is free, allows Google Voice users to acces their account, receive push notifications for new text/voicemail messages, send text messages, listen to voicemail, read voicemail transcriptions, use their Google Voice number, and make calls from either the iPhone address book or the Google Voice dialpad. It is only compatible with iPhones being used in the U.S.

What this REALLY means...

All this really means is that Google Voice is now going to bow and break under the strain of it's user base.
