Jan 24, 2017 If you use voice memos frequently and want to move multiple voice memos at once to your PC or Mac, you can use iTunes to automatically synchronize new voice memos to your computer. On a Windows PC, you’ll need to download and install iTunes to do this. ITunes comes included on Macs. Email the recording to yourself, download it onto your Mac, change its extension to.m4r, and then add the recording to iTunes. Presto, you’ve added a ringtone. When you have no further use for a recording, you can remove it from the Voice Memos app by selecting it and pressing Delete (or Backspace).

With Voice Memos, use your Mac as a recording device. To record voice memos on Mac, use the built-in microphone, a supported headset, or an external mic. You can listen to your voice memos on any device where you’re signed in using the same Apple ID and Voice Memos is turned on in iCloud preferences. See Set up iCloud. Open Voice Memos for me.
I use Apple's Voice Memos app for a variety of tasks — recording notes for work; strange foley sounds that might work well for The Incomparable's radio show; or, more recently, short song sketches or covers.
When I want to get those off my iPhone, I've got a few different options: It all depends on what computer I'm using.
On your primary computer: Use iTunes

If you want to send voice memos to the computer you also happen to use to sync your iPhone, it's easy enough.
- Connect your iPhone to your computer via USB or Wi-Fi sync.
- Open iTunes.
- Click the icon that represents your iPhone along the top menu bar.
- Select the Music option from the sidebar.
- Check the 'Sync voice memos' box, if it's not already checked.
- Press Apply (or Sync) in the bottom right corner.

Your voice memos will then download to your iTunes Library. From there, you can drag memos to your desktop or anywhere else you want them stored.
If you don't want memos in iTunes: Use the Share Sheet
If you're not on your primary computer for iTunes syncing or you'd just prefer not to use iTunes, there's a far simpler, easier way to get your memos onto your computer: AirDrop. Make sure both Bluetooth and Wi-Fi are enabled on your iPhone and Mac, then do the following:
- Open Voice Memos on your iOS device.
- Select the track you'd like to download.
- Tap the Share button.
- Wait for your computer's AirDrop icon to appear, then tap it.
Your voice memo will then download to your Mac's Downloads folder.
If you're using an older Mac that doesn't support cross-device AirDrop, you can also go the tried-and-true older route: sending yourself a text message.
- Open Voice Memos on your iOS device.
- Select the track you'd like to download.
- Tap the Share button, then tap Messages.
- Address the new iMessage to your iCloud address.
- Press Send.
From there, you can open up that message on your computer by using the OS X Messages app.
