Disable Youmail

YouMail is a visual voicemail enhancement service available for iPhone, Android, and BlackBerry devices that provides email-like web access and enhanced features via their website and device-specific apps. If you have set up the service and would like to disable forwarding your voicemails to YouMail (and revert back to your carrier’s voicemail), you can do so using the following instructions.

Steps

AT&T and T-Mobile users

1. Open the voicemail app on your device.
2. Dial ##004# and press [Send]
3. Set your voicemail speed dial number.
   • If you are an AT&T user, set your voicemail speed dial number to your cell phone number. Your device should now revert back to the default AT&T voicemail.
   • If you are a T-Mobile subscriber, set the voicemail speed dial number to (805) 637-7243. Your device should now revert back to the default T-Mobile voicemail.

2. Dial *38 and press [Send]. Your device will beep a few times to confirm the process.

3. If these steps do not work, disable call forwarding by contacting Sprint at 888-211-4727.
