FAQs on Recovering Voicemails on iPhone


Q1. How long are voicemails stored on my iPhone?

Your carrier determines how long your voicemails will be stored on your iPhone. Most carriers allow for up to 30 days and if you receive or delete a voice message outside of this period, you will not be able to recover it.

Q2. Why doesn’t my iPhone have a “Deleted Messages” folder?

Q3. How do I increase my chances of successful voicemail recovery?

The first thing you need to do if you want to increase your chances of recovering the deleted voicemails is to stop using the iPhone immediately. This will prevent you from adding any new data to the device and therefore ensure that you don’t overwrite the deleted files. As long as they are not overwritten, there is still a chance that you could recover them.

You should also disconnect the device from the internet. This is a good idea particularly if you have set up automatic iCloud backups. With the device not connected to the internet, your device will not sync with iCloud or iTunes, giving you the chance to recover the voicemails before they are deleted on these platforms.

  1. Tap on the Phone app to open it.
