How to set up a personal voicemail greeting on the Samsung Galaxy S10

1. Start the Phone app and, if you don't see the numeric keypad, tap "Keypad" at the bottom of the screen.

You can access voicemail by tapping and holding the "1."

2. Tap and hold the "1" for about two seconds until the phone automatically calls voicemail.

3. Immediately tap "3" to access voicemail settings.

4. Listen to the options. On most voicemail systems, tap "2" to start the process to record a new greeting.

5. The current personal greeting will play; then tap "2" again to record a new greeting.

6. Say the greeting you want, and tap "#" when you're done. To save the greeting, tap "1."

7. Hang up the call.

How to set up your voicemail using a visual voicemail app

If you have a visual voicemail app installed on your phone, you can alternately use that app to record and set a greeting instead.

In the T-Mobile Visual Voicemail app, for example, tap the three-dot menu at the top right and then choose "Settings." In the Greetings & Pin section, you can tap the default greeting and record a new one.

A potentially easier way to record and manage voicemail greetings is by using a visual voicemail app.

Here are visual voicemail apps for the most common cellular providers:

T-Mobile Visual Voicemail
AT&T Visual Voicemail
Sprint Visual Voicemail
