iPhone has had this since iOS 17, and my Samsung has had this feature for a while too. Not sure about other androids, but you probably just need to enable it.
I haven’t found any voicemail services I really like, so I’m thinking of building my own thing using Twilio and OpenAI. Call comes in, Twilio calls webhook on my server, server opens connection to OpenAI using their new streaming API, sends call to OpenAI to build transcript in real time, uses OpenAI to summarize transcript and extract the person’s name, number, and the reason for the call, sends me an email with the contents and a copy of the message attached.
Tmobile does it as a service but it’s a paid one and inconsistent in accuracy. I had it for free as part of a plan for a while and told them no thanks to an additional charge. Not sure it’s worth paying $5/month.
Getting a transcript of a voicemail sent to me would be an incredible feature actually.
iPhones have this, but so does Google voice- and you can use Google voice as your voicemail for any carrier pretty seamlessly, too.

Just an idea at the moment.

That would work out to roughly $10 per voicemail for me.
