When we first introduced Google Voice our goal was to create "one number for life"—a phone number that's tied to you, rather than a single device or a location. Since then, millions of people have signed up to use Google Voice to call, text and get voicemail on all their devices. It's been several years since we've made significant updates to the Google Voice apps (and by several, we mean around five ;)), but today we're bringing a fresh set of features to Google Voice with updates to our apps on Android, iOS and the web.

How many QA engineers does it take to screw in a lightbulb?
3: 1 to screw it in and 2 to say "I told you so" when it doesn't work.

That reminds me. This is a bit off-topic and I apologize, but: My sister and her family live on the other side of the continent from our parents and myself. About four years ago, I set both my sister and her family and my parents up with Skype accounts and Skype television cameras. The Skype television cameras were hooked up to their televisions (obviously), and they were able to make video calls to each other as families while sitting on the couch in front of their televisions. It worked really well, and my parents were happy that they could see their grandchildren.
Then last June, Skype discontinued their television service without any kind of warning. The equipment I bought and installed for both of them was now useless. Now my parents and my sister and her family have to video call using FaceTime on their phones. It works, but it's nowhere near as good as being able to sit back on the couch and everyone being able to see everyone else. Dang Microsoft.
