Step 1: Open the Phone app and navigate to the “Voicemail” tab at the bottom of the screen.
Step 2: Scroll to the bottom of the list that contains your current messages, then tap on “Deleted Messages." This option will only be available if you have recently deleted any voice mail. The length of time that deleted messages remain available varies by carrier.
Step 3: Here you’ll be able to preview any messages that you have recently deleted. If you’d like to restore a message, make sure it’s selected and then tap on “Undelete.”
You can also permanently delete messages in this list by swiping across them and tapping on “Delete.” Alternatively, you can tap on “Clear All” at the bottom of the screen to delete all of the messages in this list.
