Visual voicemail
Visual voicemail lets you see a list of your messages and choose which one to listen to or delete,
without having to wade through all of them. A badge on the Voicemail icon tells you how many
unheard messages you have. The first time you tap Voicemail, you’re prompted to create a
voicemail password and record your voicemail greeting.
Listen to a voicemail message. Tap Voicemail, then tap a message. To listen again, select the
message and tap . If visual voicemail isn’t available with your service, tap Voicemail and follow
the voice prompts.
