Some love the feature, others hate it; the debate rages on. One thing\u00a0is for certain: you can&#8217;t turn Voicemail Transcription off at this time. And if you&#8217;re wanting to use Voicemail Transcription on iPhone 6 or earlier, I&#8217;m afraid it isn&#8217;t going to work. The feature itself is pretty easy to use, but it can be a little glitchy. If Voicemail Transcription is not working on your iPhone, check to make sure your phone is running the latest iOS. Nonetheless,\u00a0we&#8217;ll\u00a0go over what to do if Voicemail Transcription is not working on your iPhone. Here&#8217;s how to use the voicemail-to-text feature known as Voicemail Transcription on iPhone.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Related: 10 Tips for Longer Battery Life on iPhone with iOS 10<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<div style=\"border-top: 1px solid #ccc; border-bottom: 1px solid #ccc;\">\n<h2>Master your iPhone in one minute a day:<\/h2>\n<p>Sign up to iPhone Life&#8217;s Tip of the Day Newsletter and we&#8217;ll send you a tip each day to save time and get the most out of your iPhone or iPad.<\/p>\n<div><input type=\"button\" value=\"Sign Up\" \/><\/div>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" rel=\"stylesheet\">    .dailytip-offer h2 {     margin-bottom:0;     padding-bottom:0;   }   .dailytip-offer .signup {     border-style:solid;     border-width:1px;     background-color:#fff;     text-transform:uppercase;     padding:10px;     border-radius:9px;     margin-bottom:15px;   }    .dailytip-offer .signup:hover {     color:#fff;     background-color:#333;   }  .fb_iframe_widget { margin-left:10px; top:0px !important; display:inline-block !important; }   <\/style>\n<\/div>\n<h2>What is Voicemail Transcription (Voicemail-to-Text) on iPhone?<\/h2>\n<p>It allows you to simply read a transcription of the voicemail sent to you. Once read, you can listen to the voicemail if you feel like the transcription missed a piece of information. You can also let Apple know whether or not the Voicemail Transcription was useful. Many people want to know how to turn Voicemail Transcription on or off, but you can&#8217;t do either at this time. Voicemail-to-text on iPhone is a default feature that works on devices running at least iOS 10. However, if you own an iPhone 6 or earler, Voicemail Transcription will not work on your device. It does, however, work on iPhone 6s, iPhone SE, and all newer models including the iPhone X.<\/p>\n<h2>How to Use Voicemail Transcription on iPhone<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Open the Phone app.<\/li>\n<li>Tap Voicemail at the bottom of the screen.<\/li>\n<li>Tap the voicemail you want to read just like you would to listen to it.<\/li>\n<li>You\u2019ll see a paragraph of text above the voicemail play button. That\u2019s the voicemail transcription.<\/li>\n<li>To listen to the voicemail after reading the transcription, tap the play button. Or Raise to Listen\u00a0if you have that setting turned on.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<picture style=\"padding-right: 15px;\" data-picture-mapping=\"screenshot_smaller\"><source srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.iphonelife.com\/sites\/iphonelife.com\/files\/styles\/screenshot_smaller_breakpoints_theme_newmango_mobile_1x\/public\/styles\/top_image\/public\/IMG_8024.PNG?itok=FGzQhEsb 1x, https:\/\/cdn.iphonelife.com\/sites\/iphonelife.com\/files\/styles\/screenshot_smaller_breakpoints_theme_newmango_mobile_2x\/public\/styles\/top_image\/public\/IMG_8024.PNG?itok=YS3vCfiZ 2x\" media=\"(min-width: 0px)\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"padding-right: 15px;\" title=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/demo6.aiwalls.com\/ipapps\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/How-to-Use-Voicemail-Transcription-aka-Voicemail-to-Text-on-iPhone-iPhoneLife.com_-1.png\" alt=\"How to Use Voicemail Transcription (aka Voicemail-to-Text) on iPhone | iPhoneLife.com\" data-picture-mapping=\"screenshot_smaller\" \/><\/picture><picture data-picture-mapping=\"screenshot_smaller\"><source srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.iphonelife.com\/sites\/iphonelife.com\/files\/styles\/screenshot_smaller_breakpoints_theme_newmango_mobile_1x\/public\/styles\/top_image\/public\/IMG_8025.PNG?itok=22-RHO4z 1x, https:\/\/cdn.iphonelife.com\/sites\/iphonelife.com\/files\/styles\/screenshot_smaller_breakpoints_theme_newmango_mobile_2x\/public\/styles\/top_image\/public\/IMG_8025.PNG?itok=NHQIG_zA 2x\" media=\"(min-width: 0px)\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/demo6.aiwalls.com\/ipapps\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/How-to-Use-Voicemail-Transcription-aka-Voicemail-to-Text-on-iPhone-iPhoneLife.com_-2.png\" alt=\"How to Use Voicemail Transcription (aka Voicemail-to-Text) on iPhone | iPhoneLife.com\" data-picture-mapping=\"screenshot_smaller\" \/><\/picture>\n<p>The voicemail transcription may not be perfect but it gives you an overall idea of what the person was talking about and whether or not they\u2019re a telemarketer.

If you have an iPhone that Voicemail Transcription works on, make sure you&#8217;ve updated to the latest iOS. Alternatively, iOS 11 has been buggy for many users, which could also be a source of any voicemail-to-text problems. Future updates to the latest iOS always improve those bugs. If you want to try and get Voicemail Transcription workong on your iPhone now, we recommend resetting your Network Settings:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Open the Settings app.<\/li>\n<li>Tap General.<\/li>\n<li>Select Reset.<\/li>\n<li>Choose Reset Network Settings.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<picture style=\"padding-right: 15px;\" data-picture-mapping=\"screenshot_smaller\"><source srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.iphonelife.com\/sites\/iphonelife.com\/files\/styles\/screenshot_smaller_breakpoints_theme_newmango_mobile_1x\/public\/styles\/top_image\/public\/IMG_8705.PNG?itok=9G_Hr3R5 1x, https:\/\/cdn.iphonelife.com\/sites\/iphonelife.com\/files\/styles\/screenshot_smaller_breakpoints_theme_newmango_mobile_2x\/public\/styles\/top_image\/public\/IMG_8705.PNG?itok=WLtEFb5c 2x\" media=\"(min-width: 0px)\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"padding-right: 15px;\" title=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/demo6.aiwalls.com\/ipapps\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/How-to-Use-Voicemail-Transcription-aka-Voicemail-to-Text-on-iPhone-iPhoneLife.com_-5.png\" alt=\"How to Use Voicemail Transcription (aka Voicemail-to-Text) on iPhone | iPhoneLife.com\" data-picture-mapping=\"screenshot_smaller\" \/><\/picture><picture data-picture-mapping=\"screenshot_smaller\"><source srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.iphonelife.com\/sites\/iphonelife.com\/files\/styles\/screenshot_smaller_breakpoints_theme_newmango_mobile_1x\/public\/styles\/top_image\/public\/IMG_8706.PNG?itok=ifXO11Ax 1x, https:\/\/cdn.iphonelife.com\/sites\/iphonelife.com\/files\/styles\/screenshot_smaller_breakpoints_theme_newmango_mobile_2x\/public\/styles\/top_image\/public\/IMG_8706.PNG?itok=H4QeB1Lh 2x\" media=\"(min-width: 0px)\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/demo6.aiwalls.com\/ipapps\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/How-to-Use-Voicemail-Transcription-aka-Voicemail-to-Text-on-iPhone-iPhoneLife.com_-6.png\" alt=\"How to Use Voicemail Transcription (aka Voicemail-to-Text) on iPhone | iPhoneLife.com\" data-picture-mapping=\"screenshot_smaller\" \/><\/picture>\n<ul>\n<li>Enter your passcode.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You\u2019ll need to re-enter your Wi-Fi passwords after your network settings have reset.<\/p>\n<p>*It\u2019s important to note that your carrier must support Visual Voicemail in order for this feature to work, regardless the iPhone you have.
