Iphone rings before voicemail

The frustration of an iPhone ringing before voicemail!

This issue can occur due to various reasons, including:

1. Incorrect voicemail settings: Ensure that your voicemail settings are correct. Go to Settings > Phone > Voicemail, and make sure that "Voicemail" is set to "On".
2. Ringtone volume: Check if the ringtone volume is set too low. Go to Settings > Sounds and Haptics > Ringtone, and adjust the volume to a higher level.
3. Do Not Disturb mode: If Do Not Disturb mode is enabled, it may be preventing your iPhone from ringing. Go to Settings > Do Not Disturb, and toggle it off.
4. Call forwarding: If call forwarding is enabled, it may be causing your iPhone to ring before voicemail. Go to Settings > Phone > Call Forwarding, and toggle it off.
5. Carrier settings: Carrier settings can sometimes cause issues with voicemail. Try restarting your iPhone or contacting your carrier to see if there are any updates or issues on their end.
6. iPhone software issues: Software glitches can cause this issue. Try restarting your iPhone or updating to the latest iOS version.
7. Third-party apps: Some third-party apps may interfere with your iPhone's voicemail settings. Try closing or uninstalling any recently installed apps to see if it resolves the issue.
