New Version of Google Voice Appears for Apple’s iPhone

By Dena Cassella January 26, 2010

Apple and Google must have “hugged it out” when we weren’t looking because Google Voice has slipped onto the iPhone. Apparently, Google has remedied the situation by adding a dash of HTML5 into Voice’s Web interface. It looks like Google and Apple got over their spat [not really] with or without the FCC. The new Google Voice mobile Web app is for iPhone OS 3.0 and higher and Palm Web OS devices.

Google says this new web technology that makes it possible to run faster, richer web-based applications right in the browser—although you still need a Google Voice account. Google posted a lovely and educational tutorial video that helps you add the app to your iPhone’s Home screen.

A few days ago, I bravely admitted to my colleagues that I rely on an Android tablet for my daily work. “Nadeem, has anyone told you about PCs,” one of my editors replied. “Good god, man, who hurt you?” remarked another senior editor. They’re not wrong, while I remain as shameless as ever in my experimental preference for work machines.

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 vs. Google Pixel Fold: best folding phone for 2023?

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 and Google Pixel Fold renders next to each other.

In the foldable smartphone arena, there’s little doubt that Samsung has become the heavyweight champion. After all, it’s had nearly four years to refine the experience, and it hasn’t been shy about doing so in public. Last year’s Galaxy Z Fold 4 proved that Samsung’s design was ready for prime time. Now, it’s refining that with the new Galaxy Z Fold 5, a worthy successor that delivers some nice quality-of-life improvements and even more power under the hood.

Samsung may be the foldable smartphone maker to beat, but another notable contender threw its hat into the ring this year. Google entered the market this spring with its own unique take on foldable designs that borrows from its successful seven-year run with the Pixel series.
