Managing Your Voicemail

Your unique iPhone phone number, provided by your wireless service provider, comes with voicemail, which allows people to leave you messages if you’re not able to speak with them when they call.

Just as with any voicemail service, you can record your outgoing message, play back missed messages from your iPhone, or call your iPhone’s voicemail service and listen to your calls from another phone.

Record Your Outgoing Message

To record your outgoing voicemail message, which is what people will hear when they call your iPhone and you don’t answer, follow these steps. Or you can have a computer-generated voice instruct callers to leave a message.

1. Launch the Phone app from the Home Screen.

2. Tap on the Voicemail icon, displayed in the lower-right corner of the screen.
