Google Voice gives you one number for all of your phones — a phone number that is tied to you, not to a device or a location. The number can be new, or you can transfer your current number. When choosing a new Google Voice number, you can search from the available Google Voice numbers to find a letter or number combination you like, such as 650-555-JOHN.
Adding a Google number to your Google Voice account is free. If you decide to change your Google number, there is a $10 one-time fee to change it.
