    And if the receiver prefers to read a text about it, several services transcribe voicemails automatically good enough to get the general gist.

    I use these. But they’re less direct and easier to misunderstand than if it was native text. If someone wants to say it, they can voice type as well.

      I actually agree with you on that one. I hate voicemail. If I don’t pick up, shoot me a text or send a voice recording through the messaging app.

      Absolutely. Also hit and miss accuracy wise and can turn out to be an essay, but definitely an option.
