When I listen to voicemails, it feels more natural and convenient to have them playing on the iPhone’s speakers. Sometimes I’m so busy answering the phone that I don’t notice how those around me are able to hear every detail of the sometimes sensitive voicemails meant for me, not prying eyes.

This is because although Voicemail Transcription does its best to accurately transcribe messages, it cannot guarantee 100% accuracy. If the person who left your message is slurred, has poor cell service, or speaks a language your phone doesn’t understand, some words may be incorrect or missing.
Even though some parts are sometimes misunderstood, I usually have no trouble piecing together the whole message. You should also be able to get a general idea of the message without listening to the whole thing.
