I’ve had my iPhone 11 Pro Max for about 2 years now, recently I went into my voice memos to listen to one and it’s stuck on “downloading”. I desperately want to listen to it, I just want to be careful and make sure it doesn’t erase or get lost somehow. Help?

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities. It sounds like you're unable to listen to a specific voice memos. You had mentioned that it's currently stuck downloading. We can understand how this would be an issue. Allow us to investigate this issue and assist in any way we can.
Apple recently released iOS 14.5. This update does include various fixes and helps with overall performance. If you haven't yet, we recommend that you create a backup and update your device to see if that helps.
