Hello there jdecash,


Thanks for reaching out to the Apple Support Communities! It sounds like you're havign an issue opening audio files in the Messages app. you've done excellent steps so far updating and restarting. Have you tried the steps in this link to Use the Files app on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to open the file instead of Messages? Are you seeing an error when you try to open the file?


We look forward to hearing back from you and wish you the best!
