Google Voice

Apparently I am now a Google Voice user... how do I disable email notifications? I went into settings and unchecked inbox notifications, but it appears that when you do that, you also no longer get a pop up?? Or am I not understanding this correctly? Wouldn't be the first time. Thanks.

Most of the settings are done via logging into your account on a computer. Go to google.com/voice and look for a settings icon

I use the text notifications setting. Turn off inbox sync.

I don't want either one. I just want a pop up in my notification bar on my phone saying I have a vm. Simplicity at it's finest.

If you are like who turns off data occasionally to save battery, I have text notification on. Google voice does not work without data enabled.

Yeah, I wasn't getting text messages when turning off 3g so decided to get rid of google voice altogether.

You can disable it and then re enable with gv lite...and a different gv number.

Is everyone happy with GV?
I'm thinking about porting my number now that I'm out of contract.

under google voice inbox on the comp click the gear icon then click voice setting then go to voicemail and text tab and under voicemail notifications. get the google voice chrome app you can text directly from your computer on there

i like it, the trascriptions are pretty amusing sometimes, but you usually get the idea

I integraded my sprint number into it and ended up going back to gv lite because all my texts were going to gv instead of my phone and i couldn't figure out how to change it.
