Reasons your iPhone might be going straight to voicemail
There are a few reasons your iPhone might go straight to voicemail. One possibility is that you have Do Not Disturb turned on. You can find this setting in the Control Center or in the Settings app. If you have Do Not Disturb turned on, you can still receive phone calls, but they will go straight to voicemail.
Another possibility is that your phone is turned off or has run out of battery power. If your phone is off, it won’t be able to ring or go to voicemail. If your phone has run out of battery power, it will also not be able to ring or go to voicemail.
If you’re not sure if either of these settings are turned on, try calling your own iPhone from another phone. If you hear your iPhone ringing, then you know that neither Do Not Disturb nor a lack of power is the issue.
If neither of these settings is the problem, then it’s possible that there’s an issue with your carrier’s network. If you’re having trouble making or receiving calls, you should contact your carrier for help troubleshooting the issue.
