Visual voice mail

Hi everyone, I am currently building a visual voice mail server to integrate with iOS. Unfortunately based on some testing, I noticed Apple uses some custom SMS messages and IMAP commands. I was wondering if anyone here might have experience building a visual voice mail server, or would know how I could obtain the specifications to the messages and commands Apple uses.



My sincerest apologies if I posted this in the wrong place. I could not find a matching section to post this to but I kinda felt this was the most relevant, but do feel free to redirect me if I am mistaken.



Thanks in advance everyone!

There is no public documentation on building a VVM server. I suggest you file an enhancement request at <https://developer.apple.com/bug-reporting> describing your business case and asking for the specifications.


Best regards,

Hey guys,

Do you have any news about this specification? Did Apple already made it available?

Hi GC,


I am in an similar situation to Stan above.
Unable to find the specification to enable us to integrate our Visual Voicemail server with iOS, my company has made enquiries via General Enquiries and also via the bug reporting mechanism you describe above only to receive the following response:


"Upon reviewing your request we’ve determined this is a carrier-specific issue. For answers to these types of questions, please contact your Apple Device Certification Team.

We consider this issue closed."


We are struggling to make sense of this as the issue doesn't relate to any carrier and voicemail systems are not covered by Apple Device Certification.
