On a Pixel, Google waits on hold for you. Simp Mobile makes the call.
If you have a Pixel, Google already waits on hold for you and screens unknown callers, and that may be all you need. What Google does not offer in the UK is an assistant that rings a business and handles the call for you: by its own help page, that is for the US. Simp Mobile does that, on iPhone and Android, from an AI number of its own.

Can Google make phone calls for me in the UK?
Not calls that ring a business and talk for you: Google's help page lists its calling assistant for people in the US only. On a Pixel, Hold for Me waits on hold for you and Call Screen answers unknown callers, and both are listed for the UK.
How AI calling worksDo I need a Pixel for Simp Mobile?
No. The Simp app runs on iPhone with iOS 17 or later and on Android 7 or later, and calls come from your AI number rather than your own.

In the UK, a simp says it is an AI whenever anyone on a call asks, and never denies it.
