Google Voice has been a great way to make and receive free calls to USA and Canada. We have also shared a trick which enables users to make free calls to 60+ countries using their Google Voice account.

So this means if you have any relative or friend in USA or Canada you can call them for free from anywhere in the world.

This is not all, the new “Hangouts calling” also supports conference calling to multiple phone numbers and video participants on the same call, as well as play sound effects with the Google Effect app like applause or laughter.
