By default, the native app Telephone (Phone) your iPhone can send a standard greeting message to calls you don’t answer, using the feature called Voicemail.
However, it is fully possible to change this greeting to a voice message that you prefer — with your voice, instead of the default one provided by Apple. See how to change that!
How to use Live Voicemail on iPhone
Please note that this depends on the cell phone provider you use. In our tests, the tutorial worked well on the Vivo operator.
Open the Phone app and tap the “Voicemail” tab. Then select “Greeting” (in the top right corner).

What steps should one follow to change their voicemail greeting on an iPhone?
**Interview with Tech Expert Maria Sanchez on Customizing Voicemail Greetings on iPhones**
**Editor:** Thank you for joining us today, Maria! We’re excited to talk about how iPhone users can customize their voicemail greetings. Can you explain why someone might want to change the default voicemail greeting?
**Maria Sanchez:** Absolutely! The default voicemail greeting can feel impersonal and doesn’t reflect your personality. Customizing your greeting allows you to convey your unique tone and style. It makes your voicemail more inviting and can even let callers know a bit about you or important information, like when you’ll get back to them.
**Editor:** That’s a great point! For those who haven’t done it before, can you walk us through the steps to change the voicemail greeting on an iPhone?
**Maria Sanchez:** Certainly! Here’s how you can do that:
1. Open the **Phone** app on your iPhone.
2. Tap on the **Voicemail** tab at the bottom right.
3. Select **Greeting** in the top left corner.
4. You can choose to use the default greeting or opt for **Custom**.
5. If you choose **Custom**, tap **Record** to start and then stop to finish. You can listen to it and re-record if you need to.
6. Once you’re satisfied, tap **Save**.
**Editor:** That sounds pretty straightforward! Is there anything else users might find useful when recording a greeting?
**Maria Sanchez:** Yes! A few tips can make a big difference. First, choose a quiet space to avoid background noise. Speak clearly and at a moderate pace. It’s also a good idea to keep your message brief but informative—let your callers know if you’re busy and when they can expect a call back.
**Editor:** Great tips! Lastly, are there any new features in iOS that enhance voicemail functionality, such as the Live Voicemail feature mentioned earlier?
**Maria Sanchez:** Yes! With the latest iOS updates, Apple introduced a feature called **Live Voicemail**. This allows callers to see their messages transcribed live as they leave them, which can help you decide whether to pick up the call or let them finish. It’s quite a handy feature for managing your time and calls more effectively!
**Editor:** Thank you, Maria! It’s been enlightening discussing voicemail customizations and features with you.
**Maria Sanchez:** Thank you for having me! Happy customizing!
