Previous IPhone Users: Miss visual voicemail? Use google voice for you voicemail.

---

Switching yesterday to android was a shock when I found out there was no visual voicemail for android on AT&T. Dialing in for voicemail seems archaic now. But google voice can easily take over your AT&T voicemail and much much more. You don't even have to use your google voice phone number to use the voicemail feature.

Check out HulloMail as well. HulloMail is available for Android, iPhone and Blackberry in the US and UK. The app is free and offers everything you want from VVM and more.

True, I didnt even think about that. I dont even know how to dial in for voicemail on AT&T. The entire time on AT&T I had an iphone that did all that stuff automatically.

Google voicemail transcribes which is even more awesome

Google Voice is great if you don't use Google Apps, if you use a Google Apps account it won't work with it, which is really a pain. I don't want to maintain two separate Google accounts

Mixed reviews on that app...

How do you set up google voice to be your voicemail application, even if someone calls your regular phone number, not your google voice number?

Basics: Adding Google voicemail to your current mobile forwarding phoneShare Comment Print
If you're using a Google number, you can still set up Google voicemail with any mobile forwarding phone.

To do this, click Settings at the top right of the page. On the Phones tab, click the Add Google voicemail to this phone link to get started. The mobile carrier for your forwarding phone will need to be one of our current supported carriers.

I found youmail (sorry due to the rule about new account I can't post the link, but I'm sure you will be able to find it) witch work perfectly with Android. It's free and has a lot of great options

personally my last smartphone was a blackberry 8100 and then 8110 without internet so i think im going to be fine

Has anyone successfully downloaded the Google Voice App? I have tried several times and continue to get a 'download successful' message.

Thanks,
