I went to check voicemail like usual but when I did, it looked different and I am not liking it. I liked the older way when you used the keypad. Is this permanent or can it change back or is it that way for good?
Thank you for you help. I may have had cell phones for years but I am not tech savvy.

And even if they're left on, just dialing 1 from the phone app should just let you get your voicemail without going through visual voicemail (but clicking on the notification will likely bring it up instead).

The app will still be there, your messages will show there until you delete them (if you set up your voicemail), but you do not have to use the app. If you turn off notifications for the app, you will still get notifications for your regular voicemail and will still be able to access your voicemailbox from either the notification (long press the notification) or via long pressing the #1 on your dialpad. I don't know why you wouldn't want visual voicemail, it makes it easy to listen to your messages in the order you want to listen to them, so if you get several spam messages, you don't have to cycle through them to get to your real messages. It also makes it easy to set up and change your recording on your voicemail. The VVM app is only a mirror of what is actually in your voicemailbox and eliminating or not using visual voicemail will not affect your normal voicemail.
