So you’ve been having a grand old time making phone calls from Gmail, but maybe you’re like me and you’d like to actual answer incoming calls in Gmail. Good news, Google’s got you covered and it’s really simple to setup.
Here’s how to enable it:
Step 1: Login to your Google Voice account.
Step 2: Click Settings, and select Voice settings.
It should automatically load to your Phones tab, at the bottom of your “Forward to” list you should now have a Google Chat option, just check the box next to it and you’re good to go.
You’ll now get a Caller ID like popup when you have an incoming call, and of course you can also answer the call from within your browser now.
Tip: You can also transfer calls from your Gmail to your regular phone by pressing * while in a call. This works to transfer calls from your phone to Gmail as well.
