voice memos stuck on downloading

I am a musician and use voice memos to record new ideas and practice guitar.

Recently I’ve noticed that all voice memos pre 2020 are stuck on downloading while the most recent are still there!

Any help with recovering these memos would be greatly appreciated.

Random Downloading on Voice Memos How do I get my voice memos to stop randomly downloading? Between recording, my voice memo will just started downloading, and it does this for days on end. Why is this happening when I did not initiate this process? Updating can cause this to happen, but in my case, there was no updating involved.

voice memos I've got an important issue, I made a voice recording which lasted 45 minutes and this morning when i opened the voice memo app to listen to it, it CLEARLY says that the audio file is 45:09 minutes long however the audio bits after 2:58 are missing. In short it only plays up until the 3 minute mark and the rest is just gone and its a very important audio file for me so id appreciate some help as soon as possible

Voice memo won’t play all the way through Yesterday I recorded a dozen voice memos of my elderly mom. The 3rd one indicates it’s 4 minutes long but it stops playing at 2 minutes. I can’t get it to play the rest (and I recall there was more). How can I fix or recapture the rest of the recording?

Restart your iPhone - Apple Support and try again. If the issue persists, turn off Voice Memos in iCloud, then turn it back on: See your recordings on all your Apple devices - Apple Support.
