If your voicemail’s visible is not working It could be due to a variety of reasons , such as an outdated OS or other issues with the software. As an avid iPhone customer, I’ve had to deal with this issue many times. Below, I’ve listed a few ways to solve the issue.
Solution 1: Confirm that Voicemail is set-up
It is possible that you have not created a visual voicemail. Many people believe iPhones automatically have this feature, but in reality you need to turn it on.
It’s easy to determine whether iPhone voicemail is working:
- Click on Settings > Phone
- There should be a Change Voicemail Password feature
If you’re not sure how to installed it:
- Start the Phone app
- Locate the Voicemail tab, then click it.
- Click on set up
- Create an account with a password
- Done
When you’ve completed your purchase and click “Done”, you’ll be asked if you would like to go with the default greeting or a custom one. If you choose to go with the default option you have a variety of alternatives to choose from.
The process of setting up isn’t difficult. If you’re experiencing issues, you should contact the wireless provider that you have chosen to use for your plan. Their customer service representatives will help you through the procedure of setting up.
Solution 2 Solution 2: Update iOS
If you’re together an older version of iOS upgrading it could help. You could be among the few who do not update their firmware because they don’t like the new update’s appear.
- Click on Settings > General > Software Update.
- Tap to update
Instead of manually installing the new firmware, installation can be scheduled to happen in a sequence, simply by activating Automatic Updates
Solution 3: Carrier Settings Update
You may not have set up your phone’s settings for a while. It could be the reason why voice messages aren’t getting through.
- Settings > Tap General > About
- Follow the instructions on the screen for the installation you wish to use
Solution 4: Turn Airplane Mode On & Off
If Airplane Mode is enabled, your iPhone will stop connecting to mobile networks (cellular data, phone calls and text messages won’t function). Turn off and then unplug from the Airplane mode. The voicemail issue will be resolved, since the connection to the carrier network will be refreshed.
- Tap to the right from the lower part of your screen.
- Find the plane icon
- Switch airplane mode to on.
Alternately, you can:
- Open Settings app > Tap on Airplane mode.
In certain instances you may need to restart your device by turning the feature turned on after which you can turn off the feature.
Solution 5: Turn Mobile Data On & Off
Turning off mobile data and turning it off could benefit.
Here’s how:
- In Settings, select Mobile (or Data from Mobile Data) > Turn off the feature.
- Just a couple of seconds, then switch it back off
I hope this will fix iPhone voicemail.
Solution 6: Check Your Carrier Connection
If you want to use voicemail for voicemail to work, your iPhone requires a cellular connection. Take a look at the top left corner of your phone’s display; you may notice an “No Service” message. It means that you’re not connected to the carrier you use. This could be because of sim-card issues.
- Take out your SIM card.
- Clean the slots and tray. (Dust might have got into them, but blocking your SIM be read correctly.)
- Re-insert the SIM
You may also receive you the No Service error as your wireless service provider may be dealing with problems with outages. There’s a possibility that your wireless service was cancelled or suspended.
Solution 7: Reset Your Phone App
Sometimes, you could have issues in using Voicemail due to the fact that your Phone app isn’t working correctly. Restart the app.
for iPhone X or later models:
- Tap up on the home screen (You will start an app’s switcher)
- Move your finger left and right till are able to see the Phone application. Swipe left or right until the Phone app appears.
- Swipe up

- Double hit the home button twice to switch on the app switcher
- Move your finger left and right till can see the Phone app. Swipe left or right until you see the Phone

Test your voicemail to see if you’re capable of fixing your visual voicemail.
The 8th solution is to reset the network settings
You might have accidentally messed with the settings of your phone’s network. Voicemail messages might not be receiving due to this.
Reset network settings for iOS 14:

For iOS 15 and higher versions:
