There are many cellular service providers which don’t provide voice mail or offer only a basic version of Voice Mail. If you are not satisfied with that and want to get an advanced version of the voicemail app, then don’t look back to your provider but install this ultimate Answering Machine app on your iPhone to replace the native voicemail app.
Answering Machine X is a new Cydia tweak released on BigBoss repo by Elia Limneos developer for all jailbroken iPhone models.
If you want to record phone calls on Mac without using an app, check out this nifty trick.
Answering Machine Cydia app for iPhone comes with a slew of features and customizations which are not present in the native iPhone voicemail app.
When we activate it on our iPhone, it bypasses the built-in voicemail system and redirects all unanswered called to its inbox.
The one big feature of this Cydia app is that you can listen to the voice messages when they are being recorded without answering the actual call. It means you can pick up the call any time during the message recording process.
Another big advantage, it displays badges whenever there is a new missed voicemail. You can also customize the notifications and alerts as we do with other app store apps.
