Hello! I have a problem with the sound system. When I listen to a recording on voice memos and I open some apps, then the recording stops. It’s not every app but typically Snapchat and gaming apps. I don’t know if it’s a connection but when I open story’s on Snapchat, the sound starts automatic and I can’t take it off. My silent mode is on and it still doesn’t work. Do anyone know what to do?
iPhone 12, iOS 16
Hey there ekalz,
This may be normal behavior due to the way audio is prioritized. If the audio doesn't stop when you play a previous recording while staying within the Voice Memos app, this is working correctly.
Regards.
Hello ekalz,
To help us better assist you, we'd like to clarify a few details.
Just to confirm, are you saying that if you're in the process of playing a voice memo in the Voice Memos app, that the voice memo stops playing when switching to another application? If so, what process do you use to switch to other apps?
The above information will help us plan how to proceed.
Please also check out this link, which has some good information about playing a recording in Voice Memos on iPhone that may be helpful: Play a recording in Voice Memos on iPhone

In the Voice Memos app, tap a recording and use the playback controls to listen to it.

Tip: While the recording is open, you can tap its name to rename it.
Thanks!
The problem is when I listen to a previous recording in the voice memos app and not when I play one. Both voice memos and Spotify stops when I open some apps.
