After the service is activated, anyone can set up a simple voicemail system when they subscribe to a Verizon month-to-month mobile phone service. Visual Voicemail, which is only offered by a few carriers, shows a listing of unread new messages inside the Phone app. Before listening to each one, you can pick as well as select which one to listen to or remove. The list of unheard messages is indicated by a label upon that Voicemail logo. Your voicemail messages are shown as text on the voicemail transcription. Only English voicemail messages left on your iPhone running iOS 10 or higher can be transcribed. The recording's clarity will determine how well it is transcribed.
