What is your favorite voicemail app and why?
(lemmy.world)
Whatever comes from the carrier. No reason to have yet another company have access to that
Good point
You use 3rd party voicemail apps? What even is a voicemail app, isn't it just a number you call with your regular phone app?
I need the transcription, it's hard for me to hear voicemails most of the time
iPhone transcribes in its default app
I hate voicemail.
This. I have turned it off, so I don't need to deal with spoken messages.
I've been using Google Voice for years. Sign up for a free number and forward voicemails to the Google number. It transcribes and allows me to keep all my voicemails no matter which carrier I switch to and it's 100% free. The only thing I wish they still had was custom greetings depending on who calls.
There are….voicemail apps??
Yep! I'm currently using a horrible one (Voxist) which also sends data to facebook. So I'm trying to find an alternative but judging by the responses thus far i may just have to pay my carrier for the transcription.
I use google voice to completely ignore my voicemail.
The one that came with the phone
I think I use voicemail maybe once a year. I’ll just use whatever is the default
