How does this work? Is it a carrier feature?
On my iPhone, if it goes to voicemail the call is done and the display goes to sleep. I have to go looking for the message in the voicemail to interact with it.
I’m in France and have never seen this on the two carriers I’ve used (Bouygues and Free).

- throwaway55110 2y agoThis is not the same experience I have. Mine is much more basic, inside the voicemail app.
- saagarjha 2y agoYeah that’s just voicemail transcription. The other one picks up the call and does it live.
- throwaway55110 2y agoIt recently started to work on my Vodafone plan. Never even had a voicemail before that. Probably not a carrier-specific feature, at least not the transcription - though passing the voicemail audio data on probably requires some carrier-side support. I don't think it's some backhand deal though, I think it's using some unusual GSM/LTE/5G capability.
