Textie would be awesome if you could allow me to send and receive text messages from Google Voice. That way everyone can just text me as normal but I can use your app.

Textnow has this feature built in already. Basically, when someone texts my Google Voice number Google will send me an email which I can then forward to my app account. Then it would appear in the app from that person. I can reply to them from the app which sends an email to the unique google address that the text came from. So it sends the text to them and they never have to know what app I'm using or any new numbers to contact me from.

Do you guys have any plans for adding this to the app?

    "Just a simple matter of coding," as they say. This is probably the most often requested feature, so it's now very high on the list. Maybe a few weeks, I'd guess.
