How to forward voicemails to email

Ready to start forwarding your voice messages to your inbox?

If you’re still using a traditional voicemail setup, your voicemail workflow probably looks something like this:

  • Receive a voicemail notification to alert you that a caller has left an audio message,

  • Dial into your voicemail inbox,

  • Enter your voicemail password or PIN,

  • Listen to all of your messages from the most recent, through to the least recent.

Time-consuming, right? Voicemail transcriptions, aka. visual voicemail, is a lot more convenient

Here’s how to forward a voicemail to email.

With Dialpad, your voicemail messages are automatically transcribed. You can then access these voicemail transcriptions (along with the audio files) directly from your Dialpad app or browser.

You can find your voicemail box under your "Voicemails" tab, where you'll also find your entire log of voicemail transcriptions and corresponding audio files.

Start setting up and managing your visual voicemail in Dialpad in three simple steps:

  1. Record a personalized voicemail greeting: You can do this directly in the Dialpad app. Just navigate to Settings > Call Handling & Voicemail.

  2. Check your voicemail messages: Find these in your Inbox under the Voicemails tab.

  3. Share, store, download, or delete your messages from the adjacent drop-down menu.
