What is the difference between this and the google voice extension (https://chrome.google.com/extensions/detail/kcnhkahnjcbndmme...)?

This lets you not have to deal with a separate phone # and set up.

What about the battery issue one review alleges? Is it true?

[johny7]

I don't think so. I have used texty (~50 texts/day) for over a month now and has not seen any impact on battery.

[StavrosK]

Ah, very nice. Now all I can do is wait for the invite :/

Google Voice is not available outside the US.

I completely agree with you, I don't even know the phone number my provider gave me, all I use is my Google Voice number what's the point of using a different one?
