Hi melooomg,


It sounds like you're having an issue with the Voice Memos app. If so, for help with creating tests the steps below found in the article here: Make a recording in Voice Memos on iPhone


"Make a basic recording

  1. To begin recording, tap the Record button.
  2. To adjust the recording level, move the microphone closer to or farther from what you’re recording.
  3. Tap the Stop button to finish recording.


Your recording is saved with the name New Recording or the name of your location, if Location Services is turned on in Settings > Privacy & Security. To change the name, tap the recording, then tap the name and type a new one.


To fine-tune your recording, see Edit a recording in Voice Memos."


If this is happening when Downtime is enabled, you'll want to make sure that you have allowed these apps during Downtime in the settings. This information in outlined in the page below under the "Downtime" section:


Use Screen Time on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch


If the issue remains, be sure the iOS is fully updated: Update your iPhone or iPad
