The present disclosure is an incoming call management method, which includes: receiving a call request sent by a calling terminal; determining whether the calling number is stored in an address book corresponding to the called number; if the calling number is stored in the address book, sending the call request to a first called terminal corresponding to the called number to connect to the incoming call; if the calling number is not stored in the address book, configuring the calling terminal to play a preset voice interaction prompt, receiving a voice message sent by the calling terminal; and sending the voice message and the calling number to the first called terminal. The present disclosure also provides an incoming call management apparatus. The present disclosure can initially identify the calling number through voice message including a calling user attribute and an incoming call reason, so as to improve the user experience.

A system, method and apparatus for managing voicemail in a communication session between a sending communication device and a receiving communication device are provided. It is determined at the receiving communication device that a voicemail is to be created. The voicemail based on content received via the sending communication device. The voicemail is recorded. The voicemail is caused to be stored at resources associated with the sending communication device.

Disclosed herein are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable storage media for selectively transcribing messages. Five general approaches are disclosed herein. The first approach is directed to checking for a transcription capable client, which transcribes messages when a client device is capable of receiving transcriptions. The second and third approaches are platform-controlled and user-controlled predefined selective transcription. One aspect of this approach is driven by transcription rules. The fourth approach is user-controlled on-demand selective transcription before the message is stored or deposited for transcription. An example of this is a user transferring an incoming caller to voicemail and indicating that the voicemail be transcribed. The fifth approach is user-controlled on-demand selective transcription after the message is stored. In one embodiment of this approach, a user must specifically request that a stored message be transcribed.
