Record a voicemail drop

What it is

A voicemail drop is a message you record once. When the dialer reaches a voicemail box, it plays your message after the greeting so you do not have to say it live every time.

Where to find it

Settings > Calling > Voicemail drop

Steps

1. Open Settings and choose Voicemail drop.
2. Press Record greeting and allow the microphone. Speak your message.
   

   

3. Press Stop recording. It saves as soon as you stop.
4. Play it back with the player to check it.
   

   

5. To use a file instead, press Upload WAV, then Save voicemail drop.
6. To change it later, press Record replacement.

Good to know

• Use a clear 5 to 30 second message. Recordings stop at 90 seconds, and WAV files must be 2 MB or smaller.
• Your drop is your own. Each person on the account records their own.
• With a drop saved, detected voicemail boxes get it automatically and the line moves on. On a live call you can also press It’s a voicemail (key G): with Drop my voicemail at the beep chosen under When a call reaches voicemail, you are taken off at once and the drop plays after the beep while the dialer moves on.
• Use prerecorded drops only with contacts who gave written consent. Cold calls require a live voice. See the Terms link on the screen.
• How many voicemails one person gets per day is set in Dialer rules.
