Does anyone know of any privacy-oriented voicemail clients for Android that transcribe messages?

(If this isn't the best place to post this, please let me know!)

    If you have a homelab or vps you could try rolling your own with https://hub.docker.com/r/onerahmet/openai-whisper-asr-webservice for the transcription and a foss Tasker alternative for retreiving the voicemail when your dialler app posts a voicemail notification. If you don't have the capability to selfhost whisper, you'd probably have to sacrifice the illusion of privacy (your mobile carrier will always have access to any calls made over their network) and use a transcription service from google/microsoft/openai.

    Asterisk https://www.asterisk.org/ might be worth a look too (i.e. selfhost your voicemails)

      This is definitely the most privacy-oriented answer. I don't have a homelab, but thank you for the info! Maybe someday...
