What is your call has been forwarded to voicemail iphone?

When your iPhone displays "Your call has been forwarded to voicemail," it means the person you're calling is unable to answer the phone and their call is being rerouted to their voicemail system. This can happen for several reasons:

  • The phone is turned off: If the recipient's iPhone is switched off, all incoming calls will be immediately forwarded to voicemail.

  • The phone is in Do Not Disturb mode: When Do Not Disturb is enabled, calls are silenced and typically sent straight to voicemail, depending on the user's settings.

  • The call was manually forwarded: The person you're calling may have intentionally activated call forwarding to route all incoming calls to their voicemail.

  • The call was rejected: If the recipient actively rejects your call, it will be immediately sent to voicemail.

  • The phone is out of service range: When the recipient's phone has no network coverage, incoming calls are often forwarded to voicemail.

  • Conditional call forwarding is enabled: This feature forwards calls to voicemail when the line is busy or unanswered after a set number of rings.

  • The number is blocked: In certain instances when you have been blocked, your call might be forwarded straight to voicemail (though sometimes it will just ring without answer).

Important Considerations:

  • Hearing "Your call has been forwarded to voicemail" doesn't always mean the person is deliberately avoiding your call.
  • Leave a detailed message with your name and number to increase the chance of a callback.
  • Try calling again later, or use another method of communication such as text messaging.
