Agent Meister from the Geek Squad spoke to Bill about iPhone Users, Find Calls Faster With This Trick - You can quickly find the last time you called your mom on your iPhone -- and reminder: You should probably call your mom.
It can be frustrating to scroll through your iPhone's Recent calls tab to find the right voicemail or to remember when you talked to someone last. But when Apple introduced iOS 18 in 2024, it included a trick that let you find calls faster in your recent call history.
Here's what to know about the search function in your iPhone's Recents tab.
Can I search recent calls on my iPhone?
With iOS 18, yes. To search your recent calls, go to your Phone app and tap Recents across the bottom of the menu. Tap the search bar across the top of the page to open a new menu that shows the sections Calls and Voicemails. Both of these options also have the option to See All.
You can use the search bar to search for a specific contact's name, a contact's number or dates. For example, typing "mom" or "dad" pulls up all the phone calls and voicemails from your mom or dad, as well as their contact card.
If the voice mail was automatically transcribed in text, the search can include specific words in the message, such as "meeting".
Similarly, typing "August" or "July" into the search bar pulls up all calls and voicemails from that month. You can also type a specific date, like "July 5," and that pulls up calls and voicemails from that particular date.
