Alternative for Calling Mexico
Google Voice is designed around US accounts and domestic calling. If you're based in Mexico, the US-based setup requirements make it a less practical option for international calls.

Why Google Voice is awkward for Mexico
- Google Voice personal accounts are centered on US signup, billing, and domestic calling.
- Most callers still need US-based setup details, which adds friction if you live elsewhere.
- If your goal is simply calling Mexico from a browser, a purpose-built international option is usually easier.
