How to Save Voicemails on iPhone to Computer: Top 5 Ways

Voicemails often contain valuable information, from heartfelt messages from loved ones to important business updates. To ensure they're not lost, saving them to your computer is a smart choice. Doing so keeps them safe and organized, making it easy to back them up when needed. In this guide, we'll show you how to save voicemails on iPhone to computer with some simple and reliable methods. Let's get started!

Part 1: Save voicemails on iphone to computer via iOS Assistant

Most people think of using iTunes to transfer iPhone voicemails. While it works, it will erase music, movies, books, and tones synced from other libraries. Even worse, iTunes saves voicemails in hard-to-read formats, making them difficult to open or play. Saving them this way isn't very useful if you can't listen to them easily.

If you want an easy, reliable, and all-in-one way to manage your iPhone data, Coolmuster iOS Assistant is a great pick. It lets you quickly export voicemails and many other file types from your iPhone to your computer, all through a secure process that keeps your data safe and intact.

Part 2: Save Voicemails from iPhone to Computer via iTunes/Finder

If you want to keep a copy of your voicemails on your computer, you can do it through iTunes or Finder. Just note that these tools back up your entire iPhone, voicemails included, rather than saving them as individual audio files. So, you won't be able to play them directly unless you use third-party software to extract them later.

Here's how to use iTunes or Finder to back up your voicemails from iPhone to PC or Mac:

First of all, make sure your voicemails are saved in the "Voice Memos" or "Files" app. Connect your iPhone to your computer using a USB cable.

For Windows and macOS Mojave or earlier:

Step 1. Launch iTunes, and once your iPhone appears, click the device icon at the top left.

Step 2. Select the "Summary" tab on the left sidebar, then scroll to the "Backups" section.

Step 3. Choose "This Computer", and click "Back Up Now".

For macOS Catalina or later:

Step 1. Open Finder and select your iPhone from the sidebar.

Step 2. Go to the "General" tab, then find the "Backups" section.

Step 3. Choose "Back up all of the data on your iPhone to this Mac", and click "Back Up Now" to start the process.

Once the backup is complete, your voicemails will be safely stored along with your other iPhone data.

Part 3: Download Voicemails from iPhone to Computer via iCloud Drive

If you prefer using cloud storage services to sync data, iCloud Drive is a great option. You can upload your voicemails to the cloud and then download them to your computer. However, make sure that iCloud Drive has enough storage space and that you have a stable internet connection. (How to free up iCloud storage?)

Part 4: Transfer Voicemails from iPhone to Mac via AirDrop

If you are using the Apple ecosystem, AirDrop offers a quick and easy way to transfer voicemails from your iPhone to your computer. This feature does not require an internet connection and is ideal for Mac users. If you're using a Windows computer, you may want to consider other methods.

Here is how to save voicemails from iPhone to Mac using AirDrop:

Step 1. Enable AirDrop on both your iPhone and Mac and set it to "Everyone" visibility. (AirDrop not working?)

Step 2. Launch the Phone app and select "Voicemail". Select the voicemail you want to save, tap the "Share" button, and choose "AirDrop".

Step 3. In the pop-up device list, select your Mac. Once the transfer is complete, the voicemail file will be saved in the "Downloads" folder on your Mac.

Part 5: Back Up iPhone Voicemails to Computer with Mail/Message

You can also share voicemails from your iPhone directly to your computer via email or message. Here is how to transfer voicemails from iPhone to computer via email or message:

Step 1. Open the "Phone" app on your iPhone and tap on "Voicemail".

Step 2. Select the voicemail you wish to transfer and tap the "Share" button.
