Question

Can I answer calls via the Internet instead of via a phone?

Community Answer

Yes; but on a desktop you'll want a decent mic, preferably a headphone set. Watch the top the browser for the Google talk add-on and approve it. Check its settings for mic and speaker.

Can I send videos through Google Voice?

Top Answerer

Google Voice does not support sending videos directly through its messaging feature. You can send only text messages, photos, and audio recordings. If you need to send a video, consider using platforms like Gmail, Google Drive, or messaging apps such as WhatsApp or Messenger. You can also upload the video to Google Drive and share the link through Google Voice.
