Hey there f_louise,

Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities. I understand you’re having issues sharing a Voice Memo recording. I’ll be happy to help with this.

Force close the Voice Memos app and restart your iPhone:

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

Restart your iPhone

Then check for any updates to your device and apps:

Update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

Update apps or use automatic downloads

Test sharing your recording after this:

Share a recording in Voice Memos on iPhone

If that doesn’t resolve this, create a new test recording in Voice Memo and see if you can share it to any apps. 

Regards.

Hi f_louise

Thanks for going through those steps. If the issue is still occurring, back up your iPhone and restore it to factory settings using the steps in these links:

How to back up your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch

Restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to factory settings

Set up your iPhone as new for testing purposes, record a new voice memo and see if you can share it as expected. If you can, restore your backup and try once more:

Restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch from a backup

If you continue to have issues after that, reach out to Apple Support at the following link to look further into this with you:

I hope this helps.

I found a way to share voice memo's to facebook friends, you need a macbook. follow these steps or refer to video

1. click share on your voice memo and choose airdrop to your macbook
2. once received m4a. file, drag and drop it to the open fb chat as shown. It is important to drag and drop rather than opening in chat as the option to select will be greyed out. Hope this helps you guys! https://youtu.be/Z2X4f0T6seY

Same problem here. I can share thing on Whatsapp no problem but Facebook Messenger am getting the same issue. Force closing and restarting doesn’t help at all. I’m in lockdown at the moment and not able to back up my iPhone and put it in testing mode and all that so stuck. To be honest, that sounds like a huge headache to me anyway.

Same problem here. It’s very frustrating that this can’t be resolved. Used to share to messenger just fine and it seems like this error has been going on for several months now. Its not like it’s a special audio file or anything. Just regularly formatted audio

I’m getting exactly the same problem. I’ve tried sharing from my iPhone 11 and iPad 5th generation, both running iOS 13.3.1 get the same error. I’ve tried to share using messenger.

Me too but mine is sending pdf files.

Can someone teach me how to fix it? It only started last Nov 2019z

Thank you very much.

get the error as soon as I click on any app to share

Same problem

Same. Cannot share files to messenger. Some friends with iPhones can. I cannot. Frustrating in this virtual COVID-19 environment.

I’m having this same problem whenever trying to share notes from my note apps. It’s incredibly frustrating. I’ve restarted my phone, the apps, I’ve updated and everything. Nothing fixes the problem.

Still getting same problem

I have same problem to my ipad... error last march only ufter update
