VoxNote is a Google Voice alternative for people who used Google Voice to record or transcribe calls and voicemails, and would rather keep their real cell number. It takes notes on calls on the number you already have: a summary, the full transcript and a follow-up email draft. It gives you no second number, no free calling and no texting. For those, stay with Google Voice.
Google Voice facts come from Google's own help center and plan pages, checked on November 13, 2026.

Google Voice gives you a second number. Clients who have your cell number keep calling it, and those calls never reach Google Voice. VoxNote works on the number you already have: incoming calls reach it through call forwarding, and you dial outgoing calls from the VoxNote app.
On the free plan, Google Voice saves the audio of the incoming calls you choose to record. VoxNote sends a summary, the full transcript and a follow-up email draft after each call, on your phone and on the web.
With Google Voice, you press 4 or tap Record on each call you want to keep. Once call forwarding is set up, VoxNote takes notes on incoming calls on its own, and you can ask ChatGPT, Claude, Grok or Meta Muse about them.
VoxNote takes 5 minutes to set up through the App Store and can be ready before your next phone call.
For notes on the calls you take on your own cell number, VoxNote: after each call you get a summary, the full transcript and a follow-up email draft, with no second number. If you want a free second number with calls and texts, Google Voice is still the better fit.
Yes, with limits. On a free personal account, you can record only incoming calls to your Google Voice number: you press 4, and everyone hears an announcement when recording starts and stops. Paid plans add on-demand recording, and Voice Standard and up add Gemini notes in English, according to Google's help center.
Only by porting it in. Google charges $20 to port a mobile number to a personal Google Voice account, and once the port is done, your carrier cancels that phone service. VoxNote works on your existing number through call forwarding, with no port.
Yes, for messages left on your Google Voice number, and it can email you the transcripts. Google says transcripts may be incorrect or missing. With VoxNote, unanswered forwarded calls go to a VoxNote voicemail inbox with a transcript and a title. With call forwarding on, your iPhone's own voicemail no longer takes those messages.
No. VoxNote gives you no second number, and it's a paid app with a 7-day free trial. Google Voice's personal plan gives a free number to people in the US.
Nothing signals it on their end: no beep, no message, no bot. Call transcription rules vary from place to place, and you're responsible for following the ones that apply to you and your profession.
