Apple Watch Memos say available on my iOS device but they are not showing.

Hi

I have a number of voice memo recordings on my apple watch 6 but random recordings now say ""Recording xxx" is available in Voice Memos on your iOS device or Mac" with a button saying "Done". I do not have the option to play them on the watch. The problem is they are also not on my phone. My watch memos used to sync with the phone but stopped a while back but this has not been an issue until now as I could play them on the watch. I have cleared space on the phone in case that was the issue but they have not appeared. I do not want to loose the recordings so have not tried to reset anything.

Any help would be great. Thanks.

Hey there Polly-Anna1,

Thanks for reaching out to the Apple Support Communities for help with voice memos.

First, please ensure you are updated to iOS 16.5.1 on the companion iPhone: Update your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support

Also check that your Apple Watch is updated: Update your Apple Watch - Apple Support

Next, check your settings, ensure they are correct to sync these across with your Apple ID account: See your recordings on all your Apple devices - Apple Support

"On your iOS or iPadOS device: Go to Settings > [your name] > iCloud, tap Show All, then turn on Voice Memos."

If it's still not working, please contact Apple Support to investigate this with you: Get Support

Thanks.
