Oct 7, 2013 10:19 PM in response to bybybirdyby Big Albowski,I'm on an iPhone 4 with Verizon and having the exact same issue. Sometimes, voicemail hangs for so long, I have to quit the app, and even then each voicemail takes a long time to load and when you delete it, it hangs there for a while.

Nov 4, 2013 1:42 PM in response to bybybirdyby ryangotang,Having same issue w/ iPhone 4. I just upgraded to 7.0.3, and it helped. Still, overall a very, very buggy and sluggish piece of software. Not sure what Apple was thinking with 7. Seems like they took several steps backward.

It' s not the software. Your hardware is at the bare minimum of the specs needed to run the software. The software runs, but not as fast or smooth as it would on a different processor.

Nov 14, 2013 6:05 PM in response to TJBUSMC1973by Big Albowski,It's not the hardware as Visual Voicemail is far from being a demanding app. As others have noted, it's buggy software that's causing unbearably slow response, difficulty in deleting voicemails, deleted voicemails reappearing, voicemail freezing causing the inabilty to call, and at times being forced to quit the app. I encourage everyone to go to http://www.apple.com/feedback/ and let them know that it's vital that this basic, yet key feature requires an immediate fix.

Nov 25, 2013 9:50 PM in response to bybybirdyby Steve90264,I have had major slowdown (almost unusable) visual voicemail on Verizon since upgrading to IOS7. I went to the Verizon store and they told me to go to the Apple store and complain. I hadn't had a chance to do that yet. But then today a friend at work helped me change the setting to automatically rotate pictures based upon the phone orientation (just a setting when you swipe up from the bottom on the main screen).
Once we did that it SOLVED the visual voicemail issue. When you upgrade the phone it disables that feature and for some reason it brings the visual voicemail to a grinding halt.

You can also call service provider and ask them to refresh the visual voiceMail on your phone

Dec 26, 2013 3:53 PM in response to Jman735by Macaniac,Thanks Jman, going into airplane mode to delete the voicemails worked.
Felt like I was working on a computer from the 90's before, when trying to delete my voicemails. It took 30 seconds to a minute to delete each individual voicemail and it had gotten to the point I would dread having to delete them, so I would let them pile up.
