to just show the phone number and not the text that follows for privacy???
iMac, Mac OS X (10.5.7)
If you're talking about the official app on the iPhone, go to notifications in Settings and under Google Voice, turn Alerts to Off.
then how will I know if I get a new text???
Unforunately Google Voice does not give an option to turn off the preview from the text message. If you do not want it to show, you must turn off alerts. You can keep badges and sound on to know you received a message but it wouldn't display the blue notification box on your screen.
that's what I thought; thanks..
what about forwarding it to your gmail email? will that incur att charges?
No because it will use data to forward it. Also, I just checked for you and it seems that GV Mobile+ should allow you to turn on Push Privacy which should do what you want. Keep in mind though that it is paid ($2.99).
is there a way to shut off text preview in google voice text
