Voice Memos timestamps all reset - HELP

Most (not all - it seems to have been a random selection) of my voice memo Titles and Timestamps have automatically reset. I'm not entirely sure how this happened, though I suppose it has something to do with iCloud. I initially didn't have Memos syncing to iCloud and then added them back. Also had Voice Memos open on my MacBook Pro. As soon as I open Voice Memos on my phone, I watch as they change before my eyes. Is there any way to restore them? I mostly care about the timestamps.

Hello jayt6786,

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

I understand that you are having an issue with the memo titles and timestamps resetting themselves. I would first try turning off the syncing of voice to iCloud and see if the info resets and then turning it back on and seeing what happens.

You can also force quit the Voice Memos app and see what affect that has. See the following article if you need a reminder:

How to force an app to close on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

Then try deleting and re-installing the app:

Delete built-in Apple apps on your iOS 12 or later device or Apple Watch - Apple Support

After all of these steps, get back with us and let us know how it went and we can see what we need to do from there.

Best regards.
