Everything else about Visual Voicemail is straightforward. The buttons do
exactly what they say:
•
•
•
Delete. The Voicemail list scrolls with a flick of your finger, but you still
might want to keep the list manageable by deleting old messages. To
do that, tap a message and then tap Delete. The message disappears
instantly. (You’re not asked to confirm.)
The iPhone hangs on to old messages for 30 days—even ones you’ve deleted. To
listen to deleted messages that are still on the phone, scroll to the bottom of the
list and tap Deleted Messages.
on the Deleted screen, you can undelete a message that you actually don’t want
to lose yet (that is, move it back to the voicemail screen), or tap Clear all to erase
these messages for good.
Call Back. Tap a message and then tap Call Back to return the call. Very
cool—you never even encounter the person’s phone number.
Rewind, Fast Forward. Drag the little white ball in the scroll bar
(beneath the list) to skip backward or forward in the message. It’s a great
way to replay something you didn’t catch the first time.
