Location-Based Naming for Voice Memos on Apple Watch Series 9

Hello,


I use the Voice Memos app on both my iPhone and my Apple Watch Series 9. When I record a voice memo on my iPhone, it is automatically named based on my location. However, when I record directly from my Apple Watch, the memo is saved with a generic name (“Recording 1,” “Recording 2,” etc.), without any location-based naming.


For reference:

• Location Services is enabled for Voice Memos under Settings > Privacy & Security > Location Services on my iPhone.

• Precise Location is also enabled.

• My Apple Watch is properly synced with my iPhone.


My question is: Is it possible to enable the same automatic location-based naming for voice memos recorded directly from the Apple Watch?

If this feature is not currently available, is there an alternative solution or a possibility that it might be added in a future watchOS update?


Thanks in advance for your help!

Apple Watch Series 9, watchOS 11
