Wi-Fi and Cellular Data calling finally comes to Google Voice app on iOS?

Today in the iOS app for Google Voice… I saw something that I'd been waiting for for a long time:

A modal offering the option to enable calling over Wi-Fi and Cellular Data in the Google Voice iOS app.

Finally! Is everyone else seeing this, too? (although, probably not in Japanese…)

Now, we should be able to place calls just using our iPhone's active internet connection and not the traditional phone system when using the actual Google Voice app, and without needing Hangouts, third-party apps, or Gmail on the web. 🤩

UPDATE: Users on Reddit are reporting that opting-into the beta for internet calling on the web version might be enough to trigger this modal. — If you don't see it appear on iOS, try that first, and then reboot the iOS app! 🤔
