Hi, yes, as I said in a prior message, GV Connect will continue to work.
It's possible they will remove the talkatone integration since Google
Talk portion will most likely not work because of the Google Voice
change, but that doesn't mean that GV Cponnect itself will be useless.
You can still use many more other Google Voice features after all.

Hi, if you are on iOS 7, then GV Connect runs in the background and will
ding when you get new messages. Be sure that sounds are turned on from the
Settings section of GV Connect itself. Only sound available is the glass
ding sound from iOS 6 and earlier since the sounds are part of the app
itself. If you want other types of notifications, then you will need to use
a push service like Push or Boxcar or Mailtones and have Google Voice send
incoming text messages to an email address which triggers the push. yes, if
you have a Google Voice number, you basically get texting for free even if
you don't have a real texting plan with your provider.
Hope that helps.

GV Connect users,
Are any of you able to get GV Connect to sound a notification when a
text comes in? I can find text messages in the app when I check but can't
seem to get it turned on in the notification Center. It would be nice to
know if it works for someone else.
Also, I don't have a texting plan but when non iPhone users send me a text
to my GV number it shows up in the app. So is this basically like having
free texting or am I missing something? I have texting turned off on my
plan so normally I don't get anything except from iphone users and AT And T
directly.

Hi, it's basically for you to have an alternate number for calls and text
messages. You get many features and it's free. You might learn more if you
do a Google search for Google voice, or just visit the Google Voice page at
http://voice.google.com. You can get a number for free. The app GV Connect
is one of many apps in the app store which will access your Google Voice
number and allow you to call or text from it.
Hope this helps.

Hi, with GV Connect you can make calls via 3g or wi-fi, but only if you
set your options to use Google Talk and if you have the Talkatone app
installed and configured. However that portion will be changing in May this
year. if you set GV connect to use your allowed forwarding phones for the
phone call, that will still work from what I know. It's how I use it as
well. SMS won't be changing either.

What I hate most about Twitter is finishing a good tweet, having -1
characters left and having to decide which grammar crime to commit.

Hi all. If you are a GV Connect fan as I am, or if you are looking
for a Google Voice app which works well and even better than
Google's own app, then you might consider GV Connect. I've written
many times before about this great app. I'd like to write yet
again to say that the developer and I have had a great dialog
recently regarding some weirdness where voice over is concerned in
the latest update. One of the issues is that now when you open an
SMS conversation, it's very verbose. This is especially true if
you are using Braille. So, he's going to shorten that. There are
other things coming down the line to make the app even better, but
I mainly wanted to point out that it's because of this kind of
developer feedback which helps make an already awesome app even awesomer if
that's a word.
Thanks much.
