iOS 18 brings Live Voicemail with Transcription to India

Pleasant surprise when I went to check on a missed call, there was a voicemail notification and it transcribed the text also. Huuuuge relief given the increasing number of spam calls and scammers.

Tried asking a friend to leave something in Hindi but the transcript was bad. So I guess it has more ways to go for local languages. And also improvements to handle Indian accent better.

Also keep in mind I’m on first developer preview, so hopefully, things will get better by launch.

I have been using it for a few months by changing language to English (US). I almost never pick up unknown callers now. Super useful
 
This is kind of big update, there are so many changes, biggest update in a very long time.
