If you’re like most people, you probably have an iPhone and don’t know how to call someone and go straight to voicemail on it. Here’s how:

  1. Open the phone’s settings and select “voice.”
  2. Type in the person’s name and number (or just their first name) and hit “call.”
  3. The phone will ask if you want to leave a message or call them back right away. If you choose to call them back, they’ll be able to hear your message and decide whether or not to answer it. If they don’t answer, your message will automatically end.
