iOS 9 tips and tricks: How to share and save voicemails on iPhone in iOS 9
At one point or another, we’ve all received a voicemail we’d like to listen to over and over or share with someone else. Perhaps you’d like to keep a voicemail from a family member or spouse for sentimental reasons, or save a particularly hilarious or incriminating drunken voicemail to blackmail or rib a friend.
Given that carriers often limit the amount of storage space available for voicemails or even impose time limits on how long a voicemail can be saved before it has to be manually resaved, options for sharing and preserving voicemails have been restricted. Until now, that is.
Apple’s newly released iOS 9 now lets you share or save any voicemail directly from your Phone app via email, the Voice Memo app, text message, the Notes app, or any third-party app that supports .m4a files, including Evernote, Dropbox, and more.
How to share or save a voicemail in iOS 9 from the Phone app
- Open the Phone app and tap on the Voicemail tab (bottom right corner).
- You’ll now see a list view of all your recent voicemails. Tap on the voicemail message you want to share or save.
- Tap on the Share button.
- Select how to share the message or save it to any of the listed available apps.
Now you can preserve voicemail messages precious to you or simply have a bit of fun embarrassing your friends.
