Visual Voicemail

Visual Voicemail gives you a quick and easy way to access your voicemail. Now you can find exactly the message you are looking for without having to listen to every voicemail message first. This new feature periodically goes out to your voicemail, and gathers the caller information from the current voicemails. It then creates a list with the caller name and number, along with the length of time and priority level of the voicemail message.

Setting up Visual Voicemail
