More timely voicemail delivery

Post by alexkillby »

One of my main pet peeves with the voicemail system on Fongo is that it can sometimes take quite some time after actually receiving a voicemail for the notification to be shown on my phone, and the recording available to play within visual voicemail. Could this not be sent to the app via a push notification once it's recorded on the line like SMS is?

You can get your voicemails emailed to you, that's what I do. It's pretty much instant.

You can chose either to forward or copy, the first will only email you, the second will also leave the message on your phone.

Ah thanks for pointing this out to me! Like the idea of keeping a copy and email is a good place to archive that!

SMS export is actually available https://support.fongo.com/hc/en-us/arti ... ngo-3-7-3-

But I think it is kind of difficult to find which is a usability issue.
