GV Connect: First Google Voice iPhone App Hits The AppStore

Sweet! All you Google Voice users who wish to have a Google Voice application on your iPhone without having to jailbreak, you’ll be amazingly pleased to know GV Connect is on the AppStore to satisfy your needs.

Apple finally approved a Google voice app, this is something many of us have been eagerly waiting for and now it’s here. So, let’s talk features, GV Connect has quite a few features and I’ll list some now:

• Place calls using your Google Voice number rather than your mobile number – enter number directly, select a contact from your device’s contacts, or call back any number in your history.
• Send and receive text messages (SMS) from your Google Voice number.
• Listen to voicemails and recorded conversations right on your device (allowing you to pause, rewind, or fast forward to any point within the message) – voicemails will also show the transcription of the message when available.
• Mark messages as starred, attach notes to conversations, block/unblock senders, or delete conversations.
• Easily search in your history by contact, message, or note.
• Messages are stored on your device for offline access.
• Composing notes and text messages can be done in landscape mode.
• Quickly change various Google Voice account settings (call forwarding, do-not-disturb, message notifications, …) directly from within the application.
