I frequently prefer to just read the voicemail transcription, as I can get the gist of it and know if I need to call back. I can't seem to find a setting to stop them from auto-playing. I'd also prefer the voicemail to be marked as read when I see the text, not when I've scrolled to the end of the message as that's always a pain since it's a fuzzy scroll. Any options for this? I'm on TMobile if that matters.
And an issue that will come up in the next few days, I do not, under any circumstances, want my phone doing the annoying fireworks display, complete with makes me want to drop the phone, buzzing. Is there a way to stop this without having to turn on reduce motion or something?
Edit: I just tested it, "reduce motion" doesn't work unless I leave it on forever anyways. I send myself a "Happy new year" with reduce motion, and no animations. I then left the message on for a few seconds, and backed out to my main message list. I then turned "reduce motion" off, and went back and it animated.
