Phone by Google app is now available and can be installed on the Umidigi F2 and can be set as the default dialer. Phone by Google has better block and spam filtering capabilities than the stock F2 dialer (outdated version 2x).

@popping for US only, but Google keeps storing my voicemail for some reason...

and after it will say "updating voicemail" hmmm. just spread the love Google... 

 

apparently Google has a really cool feature coming soon. 

 

"Google is adding a new feature that eliminates an irritating part of modern life: waiting on hold. 

The feature, called Hold for Me, will come in handy any time you're stuck listening to a recorded message or music while waiting to speak with a human being over the phone. Hold for Me will wait on the call for you, using Google Assistant to detect when a human has come on the line. Then, it sends a notification asking if you'd like to return to the call. 

While you're waiting, the call will be muted, but Google Assistant will create captions on your phone screen in real time so you can check for yourself what's happening on the call."

 

"The new feature was announced Wednesday as part of Google's Launch Night In event, where it debuted new Nest smart speakers and new Pixel phones, including the Pixel 5. Hold for Me will be available in a preview mode on the Pixel 5 and the new 5G version of the Pixel 4a, though Google said it will eventually come to older Pixel phones as well."

Thanks.

I just checked and it is available on my A5 Pro too.  Too bad the visual voicemail is for US only.


It appears that it is available for most Mediatek SOC  based devices now which is a good thing.
