Audio message showing in error

Sometimes after I send a text message, an audio message shows up where I would normally type a message even though I didn’t record anything. How do I stop this from happening?

Hi Lou77mm,


If you see audio messages show up when you are messaging a contact in the Messages app, could you accidentally be tapping on the audio message icon in the app tray as seen here? Send recorded audio messages on iPhone.


If not, as the app is not working as expected, you can follow most of the steps in If an app on your iPhone or iPad stops responding, closes unexpectedly, or won’t open.

    • Note: You will not be able to remove and redownload the app as seen in Step 4.


Take care.
