Are voice mails stored on iphone backups

Voice mails are not typically stored on iPhone backups. When you back up your iPhone, it creates a copy of your device's data, including your contacts, photos, messages, and other settings. However, voice mails are stored on your carrier's servers, not on your iPhone or in your iCloud backup.

When you receive a voice mail, it is stored on your carrier's servers, and you can access it by calling your voicemail number or using the Voicemail app on your iPhone. The voice mail is not downloaded to your iPhone or stored in your iCloud backup.

However, there are a few exceptions:

1. If you have iCloud Backup enabled, your voicemail messages may be stored in iCloud for a limited time (usually 30 days). This is because iCloud Backup includes a feature called "Voicemail Transcriptions" which allows you to access your voicemail messages in the Messages app on your iPhone or on iCloud.com. If you have this feature enabled, your voicemail messages will be stored in iCloud for a limited time.
2. If you use a third-party voicemail app, such as Google Voice or Skype, your voicemail messages may be stored on their servers, and you may be able to access them through the app.

It's worth noting that even if your voicemail messages are not stored on your iPhone or in your iCloud backup, you can still access them by calling your voicemail number or using the Voicemail app on your iPhone.
