You can either press "play" on the base, or from any handset you can see that you have a message and you can play it from the handset.

Sorry. I don't use the machine answering system. I have a voice mail account and I use that. If you buy the phone, I am sure that the instruction manual will explain all you need to know. It's a cool set-up. I recommend it.

Believe you can text, but I never used it. The sound is good depending on where you are and who your carrier is The tiny keyboard is querty.

I do not have the answer but the base for messages was a garbled mess that you could not understand. I did return them.

My android defaults to my phone, but when I playback voicemail messages, the message plays through renny talking unless I disable my Bluetooth.

Had the same issue as Giovanna. Very frustrating, as you can receive them, but never read/download them. This applies to modern day group texts as well, which are done via MMS.

Yes, you have the option of either having the message volume on or off. You can decide whether you want to be able to monitor your calls by hearing the message and the reply or you can set it for a silent mode and check it at any time later.

Yes, you may set a ringtone when you receive a text. Open the Messaging app and go to Settings, you'll have several options on message notifications including vibrate. There will also be a message icon in the status bar indicating you have a text message.

While in the Rode app, go to settings, input, and switch on "play through". Or there is a button in the lower left that shows a mic and an arrow pointing to a speaker . . . Press that.

It does play the incoming message, but, thankfully, it does not play the outgoing message, so you don't have to listen to yourself over and over.

Yes, when you set it up you have that option. What I don't know is how to set it up so I can stop the incoming message by picking up the phone--think that's a problem with my phone setup, not the machine. I have splitters, used to work with old machine, but now I think have to rearrange the splitter situation.

You can do both. We initially picked the songs we wanted to play from their pre-loaded selection, and the recorded our own custom messages.

It doesn't have an audible signal. There is a visual display on all handsets that indicate there is a message waiting. In addition, you can play the message on any of the handsets.

Yes, it has a built-in messaging app. You can use that as long as you are connected to an internet WiFi connection. Hope that helps you

Yes. If the person calling leaves a message it will alert you with a flashing number in the center of the charging unit. Push the top of the circle to listen, or pick up the handset and select message and it will play. You can press 3 to delete the message. Its all the operating pamphlet or you can go on line and download a full PDF instruction manual. It's really all very easy.

Maybe you just need to pick a track and hit play. It won't show any lyrics until you play a track. Call the 800 number for help.

I won't think so. I never tried sending / receiving messages? when the car is running, it's hard to understand the sound.
