iPhone 6 Voice Memos App Not Working

I love my new iPhone 6 (with current iOS 8) but one of the standard apps I always use is Voice Memos. The Voice Memo app launches but does not allow me to record anything. When I press the red record button, it simply moves back and forth like I've entered a bad password. To resolve, I've stopped and restarted the application multiple times, restarted my iPhone, etc but nothing seems to work. Any ideas or suggestions on how to resolve? Thanks.
