Sending voice messages, in iMessage There used to be an icon in the text messages chat box that you would click on to record a voice message and said that somebody. But now it has only a microphone and when you click on it, it does text dictation. Which is great, but I really need to be able to use voice. The voice audio voice message feature is there a way to turn it back on or a setting?

Why doesn’t my microphone work for voice recording messages? The microphone on my iPhone (in the message field) doesn’t record messages. I can receive voice memo messages but I can’t record them to send. But the microphone for dictation works on the bottom right.

Thank you. I found out it’s only visible if you are messaging with another iPhone user. 😜
