Voicemails are still annoying, I have a red alert badge on the home screen and have to go in, check that it's not real, and delete it.
Would love to be able to junk filter incoming voicemail based on the transcript. Anything with "card services calling about your credit card account" or "qualify for a medical grade back or knee brace" goes straight to trash.
Of course that only works for a few months until scammers adapt and somehow make their calls less understandable to the speech to text or vary up their script more often, but we fought the same battle with email and seem to have done pretty well. Couldn't say when the last time I got a spam email in my inbox was.
- plushpuffin 8y agoI downloaded an app that automates the process of disabling voicemail entirely. I don't need it. Anyone whose call I miss can just send me a text or email. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=co.teltech.novm https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=co.teltech.nov...
- wlesieutre 8y agoI get some useful ones like appointment confirmations that I doubt are set up to text me if I don't pick up
- mrguyorama 8y agoI find that the scam calls I get don't leave a lot of voicemails
- gnicholas 8y agoDon't forget about calls about "your Visa Mastercard".
- Scoundreller 8y agoI’ve set up a DID that is just a voicemail box on VoIP.ms. All unanswered calls get forwarded to it. I get an email mp3 of voicemails. They don’t get deleted. And I can still access my voicemail easily if i’m Overseas or need to reference them in the future. Costs about $1/month. And for people I really don’t like... I just hand out that straight to voicemail number.
