Set up voicemail on your mobile phone

Visual Voicemail gives you access to your messages in an email-like inbox. You can review, play, and delete your messages all on one screen.

Here’s what you need to set up and use Visual Voicemail:

• A smartphone on an AT&T Wireless or AT&T Prepaid voice and data plan that includes Visual Voicemail
• A connection to the AT&T wireless network
• The AT&T Visual Voicemail app if you have a compatible Android smartphone that doesn't have built-in Visual Voicemail

Note: You have to set up Visual Voicemail on your own phone. You can't set up voicemail from another phone.
