Should I turn off Call Screening in Google Voice Settings

(1/1)

cdcooker:
Hi, I am newbie here and I want to know if I should turn off Call Screening in Google Voice Settings.

Thanks

jimates:
Most people do, it depends on whether you want to screen your calls or not.

MichiganTelephone:
Actually, until Google Voice fixes the longstanding bug where the Call Screening option is ignored on calls to a Google Chat destination (it is always on, no matter how you set it) it really will make no difference.  When the OBi answers the call it immediately sends a DTMF 1 to get around that bug (you can turn that off in the OBi device settings if you really want to screen calls, but I think most people don't much care for that feature).

Flick:
Pardon me, how might one turn off the automatic sending of the DTMF 1 for Google Voice calls? I want to be able to hear the call screening. Thank you.
