The coaches performed "Next in Line" by AfterImage prior to the start of the Blind auditions.
Among the auditionees for the episode was Arisxandra Libantino, who finished in eighth place on the seventh series of United Kingdom's Britain's Got Talent.[7]
From June 10 (Episode 16), the show's airtime was extended to 75 minutes instead of the usual 60 due to the then-recently concluded season of I Can Do That.
For The Battles, the coaches had to pair two of their artists to sing in a duet. The coaches then had to select an artist from the pair to advance to the next round. The coaches, for this season were given the power to steal two losing artists from the opposing teams. At the end of this round, seven artists remained on each team with two artists being stolen creating a total of 36 artists (9 on each team) advancing to The Knockouts.

The Knockout rounds aired from July 1 to 9, 2017. Artists are grouped into three by their respective coaches where only one artist will win in each group. Each artist gets to pick their song. The top 12 contestants then moved on to the "Live Shows."

The live shows began airing on July 15, 2017. Unlike the previous seasons of The Voice of the Philippines and The Voice Kids, it was held in the ABS-CBN studios at Quezon City instead of the Newport Performing Arts Theater at the Resorts World Manila in Newport City, Pasay.
The public was only allowed to vote once per mobile number per team. New to this season is the online voting through Google Philippines. By typing the keyword Voice Teens Vote in the search box, clickable photos of the artists that had performed for that day will show up in the search results page; one Google account is entitled to one vote per team only.[8]
The first live show followed the voting format of the third season of The Voice Kids. After the performance of the three artists per team, the public got to vote on who should advance to the semifinals. Voting was done during the commercial break and closed once the show goes back. The artist with the highest public votes advanced to the semifinals. Meanwhile, the coach picked the other artist that moved on to the semifinals, similar to the second season of The Voice of the Philippines.
The semifinals featured a scoring system somewhat similar to the second season of The Voice of the Philippines. Following the performance of the two artists per team, the public gets to vote on who should advance to the finals. Voting was done during the commercial break and closed once the show goes back. After all performances of the night, the coaches give their artists a score from 0 to 100 points. The coaches are not allowed to give the same scores to the artists.
The combined average is 50% public votes and 50% coach votes.
The top eight artists came from the results of the public votes and coach's choice advanced to the semifinals.
The top twelve artists performed on Saturday and Sunday, July 15–16, 2017, with the results at the end of each show.
The top four artists, one per team, coming from the results of the combined public and coach votes advanced to the finals.
Like the previous seasons of The Voice of the Philippines and The Voice Kids, the finals were aired in a two-part episode on July 29 and 30.
The finals of this season followed the format of The Voice Kids where there were three rounds – duet song with the coach, upbeat song, and the power ballad song.
The winner was determined through public votes alone. After all the first-day performances, the voting lines were opened. At Sunday, 12:00 mn, the voting lines were closed. The voting continued after the power ballad performances and was closed immediately after a commercial break. The first and second-day votes were combined. The artist with the highest percentage of votes was declared The Voice Teens Grand Champion.
With Jona Soquite claiming the title, this is the third victory of Sarah Geronimo as coach on all editions of the Philippine franchise of The Voice. Sarah Geronimo is the first coach in all franchises of the Voice around the world that managed artists in three different versions of The Voice (with Jason Dy winning the second season of The Voice of the Philippines and Lyca Gairanod winning the inaugural season of the Philippine version of The Voice Kids).
