[REQ] Receive/send Google Voice texts with Message app

---

I'm using Google voice exclusively for text messaging. Right now the only way to send/receive texts is to use the google voice app, but I would like to do that through the native message app. Is it possible?

Have the texts forwarded to your phone number? Or are you trying to avoid texting costs?

This exactly. Sorry for missing info

A little bump will help I hope?

I will bump this thread..... but only kind of... let me explain

I would like to have a dedicated messaging app for Google Voice texting, but I would LOVE is to have an Android Google Voice app with tabs/menus.

The GV Mobile + app for iPhone is far superior to the native Android Google Voice application, it hurts.... I just hate opening Google Voice and seeing every single text, voicemail, missed call, etc. An intuitive menu bar for Calls/Dialer, Texts, Call History, Voicemail would be a dream come true.

It's not possible currently. Perhaps, one day Google will read this post and implement it.

Switch to Sprint. We get our texts via messaging app and not the Google Voice app! It is quite nice.
