What is Google Fi: Reach Voicemail on iPhone?

Google Fi documents two ways into voicemail from an iPhone when visual voicemail is not available: press and hold 1 in the dialer, or call your own Fi number. Either way you enter your voicemail PIN when prompted.

The PIN itself is set from the Google Fi app or website, not from the phone menu, which trips people up. If you have never set one, go there first.

Normally the iPhone Phone app shows Fi voicemail in the Voicemail tab and you do not need any of this. The dial-in route is the fallback when that tab is empty or misbehaving.

How do I do it?

  1. Set or confirm your voicemail PIN in the Google Fi app first.
  2. Open the Phone app and go to the keypad.
  3. Press and hold the 1 key, or dial your own Fi number.
  4. Enter your voicemail PIN when prompted.
