Frequently asked questions
How do I translate a French voicemail?
On an eligible paid incoming-call plan, configure your number's voicemail path and leave a non-sensitive French test message. Check the original recording, translated text, and AI summary after processing.
Is French detected automatically?
Voicemail processing can identify the message language. Test the selected routing and a representative French recording; noisy or very short messages can be ambiguous. Confirm an unexpected result against the audio.
How accurate is French voicemail translation?
Accuracy depends on recording quality, accent, and terminology. Review the original French audio and confirm names, callback numbers, dates, or instructions with the caller before acting.
How long does processing take?
Processing begins after the recording is received. Completion time varies with message length and service availability; check the dashboard for the finished result.
Does the caller need an app?
No. The caller leaves a message at your configured incoming number. Test your language menu, greeting, and no-answer destination before sharing that number.
What does French voicemail translation cost?
Incoming call translation, dedicated numbers, translated voicemail and multilingual IVR require a paid plan. Starter includes 300 minutes and two dedicated numbers for $149/month. PAYG's starting outbound minutes are not a voicemail plan. See pricing for current plan and usage terms.
What should an AI summary contain?
Use it to review the reason for calling and requested follow-up. A date, time, or callback number missing from the message should remain unknown until confirmed. Check the recording and caller details before returning the call.
Can I also receive translated French calls?
Yes, through a configured incoming number on an eligible paid plan. Test the language menu and routing destination with an English–French call before directing customer traffic to it.
What about French accents and regional terms?
Test the expected variant with a fluent reviewer. Spell names and confirm terminology; a supported language does not guarantee correct handling of every accent or expression.
