Google Voice SMS Integration
DON'T BUY THIS APPLICATION WITHOUT TRYING THE FREE VERSION. THIS APP MIGHT NOT WORK ON ALL DEVICES. THAT'S WHY YOU NEED TO TEST OUT THE FREE VERSION FIRST.
IF APP DOESN'T WORK ON YOUR DEVICE, NO NEED TO SEND AN EMAIL. IT MEANS IT'S NOT POSSIBLE TO MAKE IT WORK FOR YOUR DEVICE. EMAIL ADDRESS FOR THIS APPLICATION IS NOT BEING MONITORED.
GV SMS Integration is an app that seamlessly adds Google Voice messaging capabilities (Send and Receive) to Android’s built-in SMS system.
With the app, SMS can be sent via your Google Voice number in addition to carrier number right in system’s SMS app; new incoming GV messages are notified and processed as system's SMS alongside with carrier SMS. Enjoy a true free unlimited SMS messaging experience with your favorite SMS app, including the built-in MobileSMS.
Now the extension supports receiving Push notifications from Official GV App as native SMS messages.
It's fully compatible with Google 2 Step Authentication.
Google Voice SMS Integration will integrate your GV account with your Android. It will allow you to send and receive text messages via the stock messaging & GoSMS Pro messaging application.
It uses your data plan for sending and receiving text messages. For paying only $4.99 one time, you will have free text plan via Google Voice on your phone.
Since GV SMS Integration uses your data plan / WIFI to send and receive text messages, you won't be charged by your carrier. (Note : This is true only for sending and receiving text messages via Google Voice. If you receive a text to your regular number, you will still be charged by your carrier.)
You can setup a list to send text messages to certain contacts via Google Voice, and other ones via your carrier.
You can also reply to texts based on where the text was received from. If you receive a text to your Google Voice number, your reply will automatically go from your GV account. If you receive a text to your carrier number, your reply will go through the carrier.
Google Voice application needs to be installed on your phone in order to use this application.
Since this app integrates with Android system, it won't work on some of the custom/modified Android ROMs. If you are running on a custom ROM, you can install the free version of the app first to make sure it runs on your phone.If you don't know what a custom or modified ROM is, then you most likely have stock android rom on your phone, and this application will work fine on your phone.
Thank you for your understanding.
This application pretty much does the same thing as GV Extension on iPhone.

Comments
- Does everything I ever wanted for my gvoice for the past 3 years. The only complaint is the lack of pop up notifications for GoSMS or functionality for other SMS clients like Handcent. --UPDATE: I've used this app for a several months on a rooted SGSII Skyrocket with a custom 2.2 ROM. While, I still wish it supported pop up notifications, I understand that from a developer standpoint it's a difficult order. He clearly states that it is not supported, so I feel this product delivers as advertised. This update is to report that while the app was broken for the last few weeks, the developer has updated it and it is in good working order. I'm amending my rating from 4 to 5 stars, despite the fact it lacks pop up functionality. The diligence by the dev is more important to me than two taps on the screen. Keep up the great work, I'm looking forward to any and all updates.
- This app works perfectly as long as the phone you're using doesn't use it's own SMS app in place of the stock, it will not work on a JB based Droid Razr Maxx unless you install the stock SMS app. It will work on ROMs based on a stock build in oppose to CyanogenMod based ROMs. TIP - Use This app invisibly... I disabled "Show notifications" under settings -> Applications, From the official Google voice I Set: "Receive text massages - Via the messaging app." From GV Integration I set: "Send Text Messages - Via Google voice Account" From GV Integration I: cleared the "Send text signature" and "Receive text signature"
- I recently had to change my main phone number because I was getting automated computer sales calls from around the country from unknown numbers on a regular basis that I could not block. Using this Google Voice integration, allows me to use my Google Voice number as my outgoing and receiving text service and therefore I can maintain hiding my real number. I really like that function, and while it is not perfect and sometimes buggy, that is rare. For the securit Wish there were more updates to UI.
- I'm using this app on my AT&T Samsung Galaxy S3 and it works without any problems. From free trial to paid version and very happy. I have AT&T block all SMS (guarantee no carrier SMS are use) and I exclusively use Google Voice for SMS. The app does what it's supposed to and gives a seamless integration. If you are making the move from Free to Paid make sure you read the instructions, do not blindly uninstall. Thanks developer.
- UPDATE: Works great on Note 2. When used with Google Voice over VOIP, I can operate on the $30 5GB data plan, not using T-Mobile minutes, and still being able to use the default messaging app which is superior and more integrated than the Google Voice app. Without root! Works just fine on Verizon Galaxy Nexus. A little misleading name. Would be better titled 'Google Voice SMS Integration'.
- Updated: So, it turned out that I had flashed what was a bad radio update and that broke it. However, I still never received and reply to my email that I sent, but okay it was my fault that it didn't work. I'm glad it is working again.
- Works 150%! Very pleased with the purchase of this app..i wish the notification icon could be restricted to showing in the notification window drop Down but not the status bar
- This app is what I've been looking for, wanted to use my stock messaging app for some months and I tried everything, this app just saved me plenty of headaches
- I blocked texting plan with AT&T. Then used this. Works fine. You have to set this up so that it is sending via Google Voice. Advanced user I suppose.
- Very quickly became one of the most important apps on my phone. If you've ever wanted a different Google Voice SMS client, this app is your savior.
