Google voice soon to be in iPhone via Webapp Posted: 13 Aug 2009 05:04 PM PDT Apple had blocked the Google voice app from the App store few days back.Google and FCC were unhappy with this,so they have one more solution by working on a web application (that wouldn’t require Apple confirmation) specifically designed for the iPhone with a appearance identical to the app that Apple rejected.

For all intents and purposes, it will behave exactly the same as the app would have; you can even install it as an icon on your Home screen.GV Mobile is releasing some thing on Cydia.Smart move by Google.
