If you need to retrieve deleted voicemail on your iPhone, here’s how you can do it.

  • First, open the Phone app and select the option of Voicemail at the bottom right corner of the iPhone’s screen.
Tap On Voicemail Option

When You Can’t Undelete Voicemail on iPhone?

Though the steps to retrieve deleted voicemail on iPhone is quite simple, many times the retrieval of some deleted voicemails is not possible. The section of deleted messages on the phone app represents the recycle bin (deleted files stay here until permanently deleted).

When your iPhone is synced with your computer, the Empty button is not available on your iPhone due to which the deleted voicemails are cleared from your phone’s memory. This might make you lose your voicemails permanently.

You can probably retrieve deleted voicemail on iPhone as long as you’ve not synced your iPhone since you last deleted a voicemail. If you cannot find that deleted voicemail in your “deleted messages” section then it probably has been removed for good.

How To Permanently Delete iPhone Voicemail?

In order to permanently remove the deleted voicemails, follow the following steps.

  • Go to the Phone app and select the Voicemail option.
  • Now, select the option of Deleted messages.
  • From the top right corner of your iPhone’s screen, select the Clear All option.
Tap On Clear All Option
  • In the pop-up confirmation menu, select the Clear All option.
Tap On Clear All
  • After you follow these steps, your deleted messages section is empty and no other voicemails can be retrieved.
