Whether for business or sentimental reasons, some voicemails were meant to be kept long-term or indefinitely. I saved the goodbye voicemail from my favorite boss at my last company as well as a greeting from my now 19-year-old son back when he was in preschool.In addition, saving voicemails safeguards against equipment loss or failure as well as freeing up space and capacity on a device. There may also be legal or liability issues that require such measures.

You can use Message and Mail to send the voicemail as either a text message or email, respectively, but a better option would be to swipe until you see the Notes or Voice Memo icons (Figure B).
Most Android phones come with a visual voicemail app that will allow you to save voicemails for future use, but if yours doesn't, there are plenty of third-party apps that you can download to help you.
3. From here you can send the voicemail to yourself, either through an audio attachment on a text message, or in an email. In some cases, you may be able to share it as a file through a service like Google Drive.
YouMail has been around for about a decade, and it's an excellent app for keeping your voicemails organized. Not only can you store up to 100 voicemails at once, you can also organize them into folders, and access them from your computer if you'd like.
While Google Voice is actually intended to be a whole separate phone number and a complete alternative to your phone's built-in calling app, its built-in visual voicemail is extremely comprehensive, and if you don't want to get a new phone number there's a way to port your old one into the app.
Few things in life are more sacred than that last voicemail you received from a loved one, or more important than the critical details of that big business proposal. These invaluable voicemails deserve a backup.
Yes, you can! If your cell service is through a major US phone carrier (like Verizon, AT&T, or T-Mobile), you can download your voicemails via their official visual voicemail app. Smaller US phone carriers may offer similar visual voicemail apps, but your mileage will vary. For this example, we'll use the T-Mobile Visual Voicemail app to save a voicemail to an Android phone.
That's easy enough if you're happy with your carrier's visual voicemail app. But what if you want to use the default Voicemail feature in the Phone app? Well, it's possible to save voicemails on Android via this route, too.
First, be sure you already know how to set up voicemail on Android. If your carrier offers visual voicemail, this will also appear in the Phone app after you set up voicemail. It's no wonder some people may not want to steer away from Android's default voicemail option.
If you abide by the 3-2-1 backup strategy that protects your data, though, you'll want to save your voicemail to another location. An SD card is a solid choice to store your voicemails. Let's look at how to do that next.
Your voicemail file should be in an AMR file format. That's fine if you plan to play the voicemail on your Android phone or Windows PC. But suppose you want to share your voicemail with others and want a guarantee that it will play on virtually any device. In that case, you need to convert it to a universally accepted audio file format, like MP3. Let's look at how to do that with the free, safe, and reputable online tool, FileZigZag.
Even though it's easy to figure out how to save voicemails on Android once you understand the process, the different voicemail apps and various ways we back up our data can vary from one person to the next. Thus, our needs for saving those most precious voicemail messages differ.
But, by following the instructions above, you will find a process that works for you and allows you to keep your cherished voicemails in the manner that works best for you. In the end, that is what matters most.
By default, you aren't asked for your password when checking your voicemail from your device. If you have your outgoing caller ID blocked, you're required to enter your password when you call your voicemail from your device. T-Mobile recommends that you turn on your voicemail password for added security.
Voicemails are deleted if the auto-save period is reached. The auto-save period can be from 14 to 30-days, depending on the type of voicemail. If you hear "You have (# of vm) voicemail message(s) which is due to automatic deletion..." check out the steps on this page to save the messages.
After you've listened to your voicemail message, select the 9 key to save the message. You can repeat this to save the message in your voicemail box before the auto-save period runs out. To retrieve the saved message and save it to a different location, set up your T-Mobile account online, and follow the Use voicemail on a computer steps on this page. You can save a voicemail if it is less than 30 days from the day it was originally deposited or when it was last saved.
If you're listening to your voicemail and delete it, don't hang up! A voicemail message can be retrieved before the same call is disconnected. Once the call has ended there is no way to retrieve the deleted voicemail message.
The migration will automatically delete any voicemail messages over 30-days old, played, unplayed, or saved, from the old platform. The voicemail platform migration is bringing an improved and updated experience to T-Mobile voicemail. Save your messages before the migration to prevent automatic deletion.
Unfortunately, Windows devices do not have an option to back up voicemail. You can play them on speakerphone and record them using a laptop/PC microphone or you can use the Save instructions on this page if the message is less than 30-days old.
The app doesn't automatically save these voicemails to your phone. It's an interface to access voicemails from your carrier's system. If you switch to another carrier or end your relationship with them, your voicemails will be deleted.
Be careful with these services, especially if you receive calls from people who may discuss sensitive information on voicemails, such as doctors or financial advisers. Inform these individuals you use these services so that they know to limit any discussion of private information.
Android phones are made by a variety of different manufacturers, so saving voicemails differs slightly depending on the model you own. But there are some general steps you can follow to save those important messages.
You can also use a cloud service to backup everything you want to save from your phone or download an app made for saving messages, like VoicemailSaver. It costs $3.99 but it saves your messages, even if your phone is broken or stolen. For free options, try HulloMail or InstaVoice.
I've tried to use third-party apps to download my messages (e.g., "voicemail saver" that is paid and "visual voice mail & missed call alert" that is free), but none of these apps worked to recover these messages.
I assume the apps you have tried are working like call recorders, but as far as I know call recording no longer works on recent Android versions. On modern mobile networks everything is IP as well, but I don't think you can use that interface to access the voice messages this way, as this interface is not public and thus not accessible for you.
Unfortunately, the whole problem is that when I call voice mail, I ONLY get the option to hear skipped messages. Even if I go to the end of them, that's it. The second person at ATT who helped me with this was very patient and we tried several things, until she found a work-around - if I delete or save ALL of my skipped messages so they are all gone, then when I call into voicemail it directs me to hear saved messages. I was finally able to listen to my old saved messages. This should not really have to happen.
I have tbe same issue retrieving saved messages.. only have option to retrieve deleted messages. Never had tbis issue with Verizon. From ATT responses, doesnt look like it is do-able. What is the point if voicemail if you cannot retrieve?
I've used Decipher Voice Mail for a year or so and it saves all my iPhone voicemails as mp3 files on my computer. Great little program that enabled me to save my grandmother's voicemails after she passed away.
TouchCopy will copy messages from your iPhone if your iPhone supports Visual Voice Mail. These will be voice mails that are provided as part of the Visual Voice Mail data plan from your mobile service provider.
You'll need to avail yourself to a jailbreak mod (I don't recommend this) or a tool to read the files from the phone when it's paired with a computer. You can use USB or WiFi pairing and there are many choices of apps to grab the voicemail files but they depend on your choice of computer OS.
Voicemail messages are kept in your iPhone's voicemail inbox. If you need to share or save this message for any reason, you'll just need to tap the "Share" button. Here's how to save voicemails from your iPhone.
I want to keep and share copies of my elderly mother's voice calling me formt eh nursing home, my daughter's recited poem, detailed instructions, or a recipe. Like email, voicemail mesages belong to customers and they should be able to download and keep them in an accessible media format.
I do understand wanting to keep certain voicemails. What phone and voicemail service do yo have? If you have the iPhone Visual Voicemail or the Premium Voicemail-to-text services, you might be able to save a copy of those voicemails (see here and here).
With Fido's Voicemail-to-text service, in addition to receiving the transcript of voicemail, it also provides an audio recording (amr file). You should be able to save the attached .amr file to your device.
Unfortunately, if you don't already have the Visual Voicemail or Premium Voicemail-to-text features, I'm not aware of any means of saving already recorded voicemails from their system other than previously described.
Step 3: In the resulting pop-up window, choose a save location for the voicemail audio. You can either add it to your Notes app, save it as a Voice Memo, or send it to contacts via Messages. You can also email the audio or upload it to iCloud Drive.
