The vast majority of voicemails that I get from unknown numbers are a prerecorded pitch about improving SCO. Too bad I registered some websites before there were privacy options to prevent personal info from appearing in a whois lookup.
Even better: let me set a list of keywords that flag or delete messages if they appear in the transcription. Sigh.
Voicemail? I wasn’t sure we still did that.
I only read the transcripts. I see the word Google in the top two or three lines and delete. It’s like, nine out of ten of them. And then there will be one from my dentist or something.
Good to know. I don’t use an android phone, but now I’ve got something to lean on sending feedback to Apple about why they need to catch up. Not that I expect that to help.
On average, Apple catches up 4 years after something has become a widespread standard feature.
I get 10-15 calls a day about my loan application being approved and to just call them back. My credit is frozen so unknown it’s bullshit! Mother fuckers need to be dropped in a pool full of acid!
I bet if you didn’t apply for a loan, then you’d also know the announcement of a loan approval is crap.
Sounds like you could use an app that integrates AI STT to do this, it doesn’t need to be hardware specific or even baked into the OS

I know it’s google, but my colleague at work loves his Pixel’s assistant that answers and screens calls for him.

It’s really great, and you can just keep them on the line if it’s an actual person.

Yeah, the next iOS is gonna have that feature. That’ll help somewhat.
