The latest iteration of the iOS, iOS 17 has been rolled out by Apple at the WWDC23 event. At the event, Apple introduced a number of noteworthy features that users can look forward to. One of them that has caught the attention of several users is the Live Voicemail feature.
As is evident from the name of the feature, the Live Voicemail feature will give users the ability to get real-time transcription when someone leaves a voicemail.
At the same time, it will give you the opportunity to pick up the call while the caller is leaving a message. However, as is the case with some other features that Apple has rolled out, this one also is currently limited to USA and Canada. As of now, even the UK has been left out of it.
However, if you are a curious user who wants to try out this feature, then you’ll be glad to know that there is a nifty workaround. This will help you enable the feature in the UK and other countries and allow you to use this feature on your iPhone 17 right away. In this guide, you will get to know how to enable Live Voicemail in the UK on iOS 17.

To get the job done, you will need to set your iPhone’s region and language to the United States. You’ll still be able to set your keyboard language to English UK.

- First, you should go to Settings -> Siri and Search
- After that, set the language to “English United States”
- After that, set the Region to the United States too
