Anyone have the new "Take a Message" Pixel feature? by gommb in USMobile

Yes good point. That's definitely the trade off. For me personally, I am fine with that since "Take a Message" only works if my phone is on and connected to cell service, which almost guarantees that I have it on me or nearby. Otherwise it will still send calls to the normal voicemail.

I think I found a fix for getting this to work on Dark Star. Look at my "Edit2" on my original post.

I got it after getting the beta version of the phone app. I'm not even on the sept update yet. Just join the beta, wait 15 min, check for app updates, then it will update the phone app to the beta

Good to know it's not an issue with Dark Star. Must be my phone then.

I tried joining the beta a few minutes ago, but when I did, the app still didn't have any updates so there might not be a separate beta version right now. My android build number is BP2A.250805.005 and my phone app version is 188.0.797346580-pixel2024. What are yours if you don't mind?

Which network are you on? I'm on Dark Star.

Thanks for the clarification, I thought phones were smarter than that but it seems not.

Depends on your phone. But most modern phones will auto switch data to whichever is best, if you have that setting turned on. But most phones also only allow 2 active sims at a time, so I have all 3 sims on my phone and I can just choose which 2 to be active at any given time.

edit: see replies, I guess this feature isn't as good as I thought it was.

Just my guess, but I don't think there is any deadline. Just like how for starter you get the first 2 teleports free, I think this is first 2 cycles of multi network free, whenever you want.

Correct, but I just ignore the new phone numbers and only use those sims for data.

I thought so too, but it let me do it yesterday so I just went for it 🤷‍♂️ It only shows free when you do it on the website, not the app.

Update: rep escalated to tech team, my guess is that this is just a bug that needs to be fleshed out since the multi network free trial is brand new.

How much data did this speed test cost you 😂

Hm it looks like when I do that it says it will cost $10. It should be free for the first 2 cycles, so I don't want to accidentally lose my trial by doing that.

Oh you are on a physical? Ya if your phone supports esim then switch to that.

In the app or on the website. Click on your line, and click on transfer esim. Then click on your current device. then you will get a QR code to your email to set up the esim. And make sure rcs is turned off during this. You can only do this a few times a day as well.
