Seeing where this site is going, this account is moving to https://t.co/cQODBxttKS
Hope to see you all over there!

@JCardevil Sorry, we’ve moved to Mastodon so I didn’t see your message.
An update to the application has been submitted to Apple to resolve this issue.

@ZL999 I assume you’re using callback? Change to a different setting in the “Start Calls from” section in the Settings tabs and then switch back to your preferred setting. That should fix the error.

@nikwade2 Whether it is worth it is your decision – it works for all my four accounts.

GV Connect now has been available for TEN YEARS on the @AppStore – it is still being actively supported and updated and original purchases from ten years ago are still valid.

@rjcarlsonmd Are you showing SMS/VM in the history list? If so, try toggling that off.

Recent changes in the (unpublished) API for Google Voice cause the application to not work correctly (displaying a login screen repeatedly).

We are aware of this issue and currently working on reverse-engineering the new protocol in order to update the application.

@rjcarlsonmd (you should also probably mask out the phone number of your contact). Or just delete the tweet…

@agleung No, it is no longer working due to API changes on Google’s side. Since Apple terminated the Dashboard last year there aren’t plans on a revival either, sorry.

[Ged Maheux @gedeon]

Pick an app that you use and love and leave a review for it in the @AppStore today. Trust me, the developer will appreciate it.

[GV Connect @GV_Connect]

@rjcarlsonmd No new features but no features lost either 😃

[GV Connect @GV_Connect]

GV Connect 3.5 is now available for download from the AppStore. It restores full functionality and uses the latest protocol to communicate with the Google Voice servers.

Thank you everyone for their patience while I had to reverse-engineer the new protocol!

[GV Connect @GV_Connect]

An update which restores full functionality has been submitted to Apple for review and release on the AppStore. Thanks everyone for their patience!

[GV Connect @GV_Connect]

Making good progress on the new Google Voice protocol. Feature parity to the old protocol seems possible and an update should hopefully be available later this week.

[GV Connect @GV_Connect]

@rjcarlsonmd They seem to be removing features with every major change…

[GV Connect @GV_Connect]

@LevanteWatkins It’s a system API. It only applies to the initial launch after unlock. Any subsequent launches within the 30s window are treated as being outside the allowed window.

[GV Connect @GV_Connect]

@LevanteWatkins The “Use Face ID to unlock” setting in the “Passcode Lock” setting on the Settings tab explicitly explains the behavior:

“When using Face ID, GV Connect will be unlocked automatically if your phone has been unlocked using FaceID in the last 30s before opening the application.”

@LevanteWatkins Please send an email to support with the details of the bug.

[GV Connect @GV_Connect]

We are aware that the “Direct Call” feature is currently not working. We’re trying to determine whether it is possible to adapt to the API change rolled out by Google (remember, there is no official API for Google Voice).
Hang on tight!
