“In order to work more effectively, I usually record important meeting content and other records in the voice memo of my iPhone 12 Pro Max. The shortcomings of the written record are slow and not in detail, while the voice memo to a great extent solved the problem. On the other hand, I also need to periodically delete those memos in order to protect the company’s secrets without leakage. So how do I completely delete the files in the voice memo?”
The voice memos app on your iPhone/iPod can be used in many cases. You can use it to record songs, speeches, interviews, your own voice, etc. Depending on your iPhone’s storage space, you can save hundreds to thousands of voice memos.
