It has been a minor annoyance for quite some time that I have to use the Youmail application to use visual voicemail on my iPhone 5.

But.... :)

I have noticed that the TetherMe section of Settings has a section called Mobile Data Network.

Inside that is a place to manually enter settings for Visual Voicemail.

This is what it says by default:

  • APN phone
    Username [blank]
    Password [blank]

Is there a way to enter settings that will allow me to use the iPhone's native Phone/Voicemail button to retrieve Youmail?

Youmail used to do this, but some agreement with Apple allows them to have Youmail in the App Store now, if they don't directly interface with the native Phone application.

Thanks very much for any help you can provide!
