how to call your voicemail on an android phone
The easiest way to check android voicemail is to open your phone’s dial pad (the keyboard you use to enter phone numbers) and press and hold the number “1”. if you look closely, it should even have a little icon that looks like a recording underneath.
You will be immediately redirected to your voicemail inbox.
If your phone is not nearby or the battery is dead, you can access your mailbox from another phone.
1. from another phone, call your own phone number.
2. wait for the recorded “please leave a message” greeting to begin playing, then touch the pound key (#) on the phone’s dial pad.
3. enter your voicemail pin.
You will now have access and control over your voicemail inbox.
If you prefer to read the text transcripts of your android voice messages, go to the google play store and install a visual voicemail app, such as “my visual voicemail” or “voxist”.
