Lost Voice Memos

Like many a use, I have lost my voice memos from my iwatch. All of a sudden it stopped syncing, even though I had it setup with icloud. I have recently updated software. When my watch turned on and off again, all my voice memos were gone. Any sync with my phone are still there, but any that didn't have vanished.


I have not deleted them, therefore they cannot and are not in the deleted files.


They have simply vanished and I am not willing to unpair my watch, as the back that is created won't have the voice memos.


Has anyone actually found a solution to this?

Have Apple found a solution, as it appears to be quite common. This is a great app and feature for the watch, but if they are to just disappear, then there is a fault in the software.


I really hope someone can help.

Hi Squire96,


We'd advise restarting both your iPhone and your Apple Watch, then check if the memos are still missing.
