Abstract: The present invention concerns a device for managing voice data. The embodiment described comprises apparatus for displaying a visual representation of a voice message and processor circuitry for associating markers with segments of the message. The markers are indicative of particular storage areas, e.g. a telephone number storage area, a calendar storage area etc. Association of a marker with a segment of a voice message automatically causes that segment to be linked with the corresponding storage area so that the segment can later be retrieved in the context of a user interface for that particular storage area.
