Audio message saved - never sent

Is there a bug from texts saying “”contact” has saved an audio message from you?” I have never sent an audio message to begin with though. What could they be saving?

iPhone 11 Pro, iOS 15

Hey laurynn3,


It appears that in a conversation or conversations, you are seeing that an audio message has been saved, which was from you. Is this happening with multiple contacts or only one? Do you continue to encounter this issue if you restart your iPhone 11 Pro? Restart your iPhone It may seem like a simple step, but it can sometimes help resolve issues. Have you contacts confirmed if they've received an audio message from you? Your answers can help us determine what might be going on and possible next steps.


Also, you'll want to make sure your iPhone is fully updated, as that may also help: Update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch If there is an available update, you'll want to make sure that you back up your iPhone first: How to back up your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch


Best wishes to you.

laurynn3,


Thank you for letting us know. If you'd like, you could try deleting the conversation thread and starting again to see if that may resolve this issue. Keep in mind, that if you use Messages in iCloud, that deleting a conversation thread is permanent. If you'd like, you can read more about Messages in iCloud here: Use Messages in iCloud - Apple Support


If you don't use Messages in iCloud (you can check for that in Settings > tap your name > iCloud > Messages), you could backup your iPhone, delete the thread, then test to see if this still happens with a new thread. If it does, you could restore that backup to restore that thread:


If the issue continues after trying a new thread with your fiancé, you can contact Apple Support for further assistance here: Contact Apple Support


Take care.
