But it's using your phone's minutes when you call or when you get calls...
At least it does in mine..

+1 definitely uses minutes on the phone.

reading a transcribed voicemail text does not use minutes (but text rates apply if you have them).

oh well, just using my google voice number still for my business because it has call screening, love that feature, it tells you who is calling when they say their name :D

Too bad I cant hook up my Comcast number to it.

The transcription is surprisingly good, I think, especially compared to voice to text feature in android.

It was a great eight year run, but it was time to focus on other things. I'm still selling parts on eBay under micro*image seller ID and customers can still make requests for anything specific.
