Where can I see voicemails that are transcribed?


This is visible in the main R! OX dashboard when you login at login.ringbyname.com Scroll down under call presence, and select the red "+" to the right of 'Missed Calls and Voicemails."

Can I see Voicemail Transcribing on the mobile app, Ringbyname?


Yes! To access your voicemail transcriptions, be sure you have the latest version of the app by checking it in the app or play store. On the app homepage, tap on the 'voicemail' tab and tap the voicemail you want to read the transcription for or listen to. You'll see a summary of the message below it. 







Voicemail Transcribing isn't working, what do I do? 


Sometimes voicemail transcribing won't have a message. This will be because the voicemail has been deleted, or was a silent message that had no words said. If your voicemail transcriber gives you very strange text that doesn't match the audio, be sure you have the right language selected for your voicemail box. The Spanish voicemail box listens for Spanish words, the English voicemail box listens for English words and so on. If you have further questions please reach out to our support team at 855-345-7464 or support@ringbyname.com
