The Android phone has a plethora of great features but, Google Voice is one of the best reasons to use this phone. If you live in the United States, the deep integration will save on international calling and text messages. Google Voice isn’t moving outside the US, but the Android app is getting an update to kill some of the more annoying bugs that have been in the app for a while.

The double-tap play button and inability to call without a data connection are the two most annoying bugs killed in this update. Now, your voicemails shouldn’t automatically stop right after you hit the play button, forcing you to press it twice. Voicemails will simply play on the first tap. Also, the app no longer requires a data connection in order to make a call; unfortunately this only applies to numbers that you’ve called before. If it’s a new number that you need to call, you’ll still need a data connection.

The update will come with a warning before you compose/send a text messages if you don’t have a data connection. They also have a fix in for notification delays for texts and voicemails. So get Google Voice for free now its available in the Android Market!
