Really would like this better for privacy.

I would like the option of using our Google number also

I would use Textra if you had GV integration as I need to show my GV number (which I've had since I first got a cell phone) rather than the built in phone number.

Lack of Google voice integration is the only reason I am uninstalling this otherwise great looking program. I have been using my Google Voice number for over 10 years, and if I start texting people from a different number(the built in phone number) nobody will recognize me.

Would really like this feature please.

It's already been "declined" by delicious. :( seen it in another post . I would love that option also

Definitely would be nice to push/display Google Voice number.

yes I want to use my Google Voice number as the default number as I have merged with Hangouts

I'll have to downgrade from Lollipop unless theres some kind of workaround.

This key feature would push Textra much further past the competition!
