The absolute worst thing about voicemail is that you can't just listen to the one you just got. I have about 50 unheard voicemails at this point. You leave one? I have to work my way through 50 just to hear yours. And it doesn't even let me work from most recent. Nope. Just never going to happen.
huh? Android lets you pick from a menu.
What? How do you set that up?
It's carrier specific. Mine doesn't do that either. iPhones seem to be the only ones that force it. Otherwise I get to sit through the same dial-in voicemail service as ever.
Darn, I thought that was the case but I was kinda hoping that I could get around it.
The feature is called "Visual Voicemail". Your carrier may support it, but if it's like mine they likely charge extra. iOS works around it by just answering the call and saving a recorded message.
Most smartphones offer voicemail transcription now, I believe. Or at least Apple does. I don't have voicemail set up on my Android phone to check.
It is ridiculous that in 2025 you still don’t have random access voicemail.
I used to use an app called Hullomail which brought them into an app as voice clips you can see the caller and play or export.
It also showed you missed calls while your phone was off since they can just flag when a call was redirected to them. Super useful.
IIRC they got acquired and removed the free tier but you might still find them useful.
Life must really suck when you're too dumb to know how things work.
As your dad proved when he couldn't figure out the condom
