Listening to Voicemail in a Standard Application

Each smartphone manufacturer creates its own software for calls. Voicemail is largely tied to calls — its configuration is performed in this application. Fortunately, almost everything is standardized: the same names, icons, and paths used. Thanks to this, there is a general instruction:

1. We go to the "Calls".

2. Go to the "Dialing" section.
3. Click on the icon in the form of 10 small circles.
4. Clamp the number 1 until the call begins.
5. The messages will start playing.

There are no messages — the phrase "You have no more messages" or a similar one will be played automatically.
