Voicemail transcription

I just got the iPhone 13 plus max …. If I miss a call and the person leaves a voicemail I get a text message with the transcript in my message as well as in my voicemails. I don’t need it in two places

Who is your carrier? Some carriers provide the text message as a service and you would need to discuss that with them. Also, do you use any kind of Robo call killer? I participated in a discussion the other day where a person stopped receiving his visual voicemail transcript but was receiving a text message from a strange number. It turned out it was a problem with an robokiller app that had stopped working correctly. See the information they provided.


I finally found the following articles on a "tech" site here: https://arstechnica.com/civis/viewtopic.php?t=1404705 and followed through on the "robokiller" one and I don't even remember downloading that app but I guess I must have years ago? They say that there is a glitch in their app that can cause voicemail to be forwarded to one of their sites. I followed the instructions you can read here: https://support.robokiller.com/hc/en-us/articles/360027065591-How-can-I-disable-RoboKiller-on-my-iPhone-or-Android-device- and my voicemail is finally coming in to my iPhone's visual voicemail like it is supposed to.


Otherwise, your carrier is the one to talk to since voicemail is a carrier service and they would need to troubleshoot your problem.
