When I visited the Verizon website using Google Chrome, I was met with a reminder that… “You are using a browser that verizon.com does not support. For a better experience, please use a supported browser.”
Why can’t I have the optimum experience using Chrome?

Google immediately converts your audio message to text and gives you options to select, “To, Subject, CC, or BCC”.
Selecting “To” auto populates your Gmail address allowing you to share your verbal brain storm (or not).
