What is your call has been forwarded to voicemail?

When you hear the message "your call has been forwarded to voicemail," it means that the person you are trying to call did not answer the phone, or their phone is turned off, or they have set their phone to forward calls to voicemail. Voicemail is a system that enables callers to leave a voice message for the person they called, in case they are not available to receive the call at that moment. Once the caller leaves a message, the receiver can listen to it later and get back to the caller when they have the chance. Voicemail is commonly used with mobile phones and landlines and is a convenient way to communicate when you cannot answer the phone.
