Use Voicemail Transcription on iPhone: Voicemails are annoying whether you’re the one leaving one or the one getting one. But the iPhone’s feature that turns voicemail into text makes it easy to keep track of your messages. Learn how to use this feature and what to do if it stops working. Apple’s Visual Voicemail service, which shows your messages visually in the Phone app, includes voice-to-text transcription. Visual Voicemail makes it easy to play, delete, or look through your voicemail box.
Voicemail transcription is the process of writing down voicemails. A machine that turns speech into text listens to a voicemail. It tries to turn what was said into something that can be read. You can get this transcription by text message or email from the service. Voice-to-text technology isn’t perfect, so it’s possible that transcriptions aren’t always 100% correct.
How to turn on iPhone voicemail transcriptions
- Open the Phone app and navigate to the Voicemail tab.
- Tap on a voicemail to transcribe it.
- If the voicemail hasn’t been transcribed before, you may see the message “Transcribing Voicemail…” as it loads.
- In a few moments, the transcription should appear.
- If you need to revisit the voicemail, the transcription should immediately appear when you tap on it. You may see some blanks (indicated as “) if the software is unable to make out what the speaker is saying.
- To share the transcription, tap to select a portion text, then tap Copy or Share.
