can I add a voice memo clip to imovie

Provided the voice memo is in a supported audio format, you should be able to drag it from its saved location to the project timeline in iMovie. Drag it directly on top of a video clip. As you drop it, the audio will appear below the video clip as a green (or possibly purple) coloured bar. You can drag the green bar back and forth to adjust its position in the timeline.

It's probably best to firstly import the voice memo file into iTunes, then drag the file from the Music Browser in iMovie to the project timeline, as described above.

You can also record voiceovers directly from within iMovie. Here is a link to the iMovie Help topic regarding voiceovers:

1. send the voice memo to your mailbox
2. open the mailbox and hold the attachment link until a dialogue box pops up
3. choose "open in iMovie"

I was able to perform this on my iPhone 5. It has iMovie installed though.

Thanks for sharing that. I had to send the audio to myself and could not open in iMovie while the message was in draft status.

this worked - just what i needed!!!

Thanks! I was able to perform this on my iPhone 6, running on iOS 8.3. Worked like a charm!

I did not find this helpful. Unfortunately, the drag and drop method did not work for me.😟
