Awful

This app will not work on my iPhone. It did at one time but not anymore!
I tried all of the suggestions before receiving this message and Google voice will not accept my password. I know you are going to tell me to change my password, but what password???

Identity verification problem

I took a picture of my DL and made sure it is very clear. But the app is saying my identity cannot be verified. My DL info and the Google info are all the same. I have been using google and gmail for years. I applied the verification code sent to my phone and I can’t still get verified. Now, it’s not giving me option to attempt again. There’s no means of contacting anyone from Google in the help center.

Requesting personal information should be illegal

Asking for my government ID is illegal and Google should learn to mind it’s business and don’t give me the for your security nonsense I’ll be deleting and Google app that requests any government identification F off!!!!

Great, but…

…for those of us who upgraded to the starter package, can’t we get RCS functionality? I’m failing to see the benefit of the upgrade just yet. Otherwise no complaints about this great service.
