Why choose WIGGWIGG over Google Voice?

Actually available in Canada

Unlike Google Voice, WIGGWIGG is built for Canadians. Get real Canadian phone numbers with local area codes.

Built-in password manager

Google Voice is just a phone number. WIGGWIGG combines phone numbers with a secure password manager, organized by identity.

Identity-based organization

Instead of just one number, WIGGWIGG organizes everything by identity. Your work identity has its own phone number, passwords, and contacts. Same for personal, side business, dating, and more.

Canadian company, Canadian laws

WIGGWIGG INC. is subject to Canadian privacy law (PIPEDA); what we store is in Canada. Telephone traffic still crosses our US carrier, as it does for any phone service.

A spam filter you can audit

Google Voice's spam labeling is opaque AI. WIGGWIGG names up to five checks that apply depending on the channel and your settings, and shows a high-confidence warning before you answer; a personal block rejects the call or message when it is the most specific applicable rule.

Routing that follows your week, not just your calendar

Google Voice's Working Hours rely on Google Calendar (Workspace tier only). WIGGWIGG ships per-day-of-week business hours, multiple prioritized rules, and date-based holiday overrides without forcing you into anyone's calendar product.

Why invest in WIGGWIGG?

If you just need a second number today, other options work. But if you want your phone numbers, passwords, and contacts organized by identity with zero-knowledge encryption, and you want to support an independent Canadian company building that future, WIGGWIGG is where that's happening.

Built for a gap Google won't fill

Google Voice isn't available in Canada by choice. WIGGWIGG exists because Canadians deserve identity infrastructure designed for them, not a US product that happens to work here.

Your data isn't the product

Google's business model is advertising. WIGGWIGG's business model is subscriptions. That's not a branding difference, it's an architectural one. When your revenue comes from users, you build for users.

Encryption you don't have to trust

Google asks you to trust its privacy policies. WIGGWIGG uses zero-knowledge encryption so trust isn't required. Even we can't access your identity data.

Community-driven roadmap

Post-launch, users vote on features. Early access members directly shape what gets built. You're not just buying a product, you're investing in its direction.

Control over who reaches you

Spam filtering and call routing aren't separate features at WIGGWIGG, they're one decision: who gets to talk to you, and when. Multiple prioritized rules, business-hours scheduling, and the applicable inbound checks work together so the right calls reach you and the rest don't.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why isn't Google Voice available in Canada?

Google has never launched Google Voice in Canada, likely due to Canadian telecommunications regulations and licensing requirements. This leaves Canadians without access to the service. WIGGWIGG fills this gap with a service designed specifically for Canadians.

Is WIGGWIGG free like Google Voice?

WIGGWIGG includes 2 free identities with our password manager. For phone numbers, we offer a 7-day free trial, then each number is $7/month. While Google Voice is free in the US, it's simply not an option in Canada.

Can I port my number to WIGGWIGG?

Moving your number to another provider is your right. Today it goes through our support: open a support ticket in the app and we handle it at no charge. Porting a number in is not yet offered. For now you get a new Canadian phone number when you sign up, and you can choose your area code.

Does WIGGWIGG work on web and mobile like Google Voice?

Yes! WIGGWIGG has a full-featured web app available now. Our Android app installs today as a preview build, and the App Store and Google Play versions are on the way. You can make and receive calls from any device with a browser.

How does WIGGWIGG's spam filtering compare to Google Voice's?

Google Voice uses opaque AI labeling and a manual block list. WIGGWIGG names up to five checks that apply depending on the channel and your settings, shows a high-confidence warning before you answer, and rejects a call or message when your personal block is the most specific applicable rule.

Can I send international calls and texts from WIGGWIGG?

Yes. Outbound international calls and texts draw from your International Balance, a pay-as-you-go top-up covering destinations across Europe, Asia, the Middle East, Africa, Latin America, and Oceania. Inbound is unrestricted, calls and texts can reach your WIGGWIGG number from any country, with no per-destination charge.
