I am having this issue, too. If Apple iPhones no longer support AMR files, why are audio messages sent from one iPhone to another being sent or received as caf.amr files? I have actively watched an audio message change from a caf file that I could listen to if I managed to open it fast enough into a caf.amr file. In those cases, the audio messages aren't coming in as the nice little play button they used to be, either, but like they are attached caf files.
