Sync voice memos from iPhone to itunes on iMac

Can I seamlessly sync Voice Memos created on my iPhone to my iMac? I understand you can individually AirDrop Voice Memos from iPhone to iMac. I was hoping the apps would sync in iCloud.


What Apple shows in the support DOES NOT WORK since voice memos don't show up as an option when I go to Preferences. ( Pictured below)


Why does Apple make simple things so difficult sometimes?!


Please help and Thank you

iMac 27", macOS 10.12

Hello christelarcucci, 


Thanks for reaching out to the Apple Support Communities! I understand you're not able to find Voice Memos as an option when you are looking at the iCloud Drive options on your Mac. 


First, check to see which macOS version your Mac is running. The information that you found for using iCloud with your Voice Memos was released with macOS Mojave and is still available with macOS Catalina. If you click on "Select version:" at the top of this page you'll notice those are the only two options: See your voice memos on all your devices


If you're running and older version of the Mac operating system, you will not have access to this feature. You can still sync the Voice Memos app though iTunes, or use AirDrop as you mentioned.


All the best.
