Use this guide if your current business phone number is a Google Voice number.
Google Voice forwarding behavior depends on your plan, linked numbers, rules, and verification requirements. Test carefully before relying on it for live customer calls.
Setup Checklist

- Review forwarding numbers and custom call forwarding rules.
- Add or route calls to the AI number if Google Voice allows it for your account.

Important Notes
- Google Voice may require verification before using a forwarding number.
- Some Google Voice flows may screen calls or require an answer action.
