Phone by Google

Katie Anderson

Why would you pop up a thing asking me to review the phone app? Ugh. But since you asked, this is a phone. I expect the one thing it to do absolutely flawlessly is to work as a phone. But there is sometimes lag in opening the app, or slow contact searching, etc.. Nothing major, but the experience should be perfect. And it shouldn't be interrupted by a pop up asking me how well it works, since that deliberately interferes with the basic task of being a phone!

Had to hit the screen 3-4 times to place the call. Apparently, Google heard me complain about the experience and asked for a review. Google's updates to the phone suck. have had nothing but problems since they started doing updates. But if I am in another app and touch the screen it minimizes the app with one touch when there is no option for it. Not getting another Google phone, nor would I recommend a Google phone, because of the updates!

Works ok. The occasional "crash" makes it not to work to make it receive calls which is the whole purpose of the application. I personally don't like the way this application shows my contacts. Previous versions were much better at visually and organizationally filter and show my contact list.

Update, thank you for the link, but it doesn't fix the problem. There is no option to enable visual voicemail uner the voicemail setting. Great app, but whatever the they did on this recent update broke the voicemail feature. The voicemail tab is just completely gone. I've played around in the settings for hours now and have found no way to bring it back. Please correct this.

It's a little buggy sometimes when you hit the contact message it just takes you to a blank screen when you're trying to text somebody. Connecting to Bluetooth is a headache sometimes also but I don't know if that's related to the phone or just the app. I wish you could swipe right to call and swipe left to message like in the Samsung native app.

Having lots of problems lately getting cut off. Caller often can't hear me after several min. Today another call came and I finally had to restart phone to recover use. Please make this a simpler app. You've made it so complex it no longer works smoothly. I'd love for you to take a vote among users to determine how many would like a phone app where the user can turn off all the 'bells and whistles'. I long for a simple land line dialer. It's been over 15 years since I was so lucky!
