Saved voice memos
A saved voice memo is a recording you've kept for future use, handy for support replies, pitches, acknowledgments, and anything else you find yourself saying more than once.
These were previously called pre-recorded messages.
Why use them
- Respond quickly. Reply to a thread or send a top-level message instantly.
- Stop repeating yourself. If you keep sending the same response, save it once.
Save one
Record a voice memo as usual, and it's kept in Voice Memos ready to reuse. To keep a message you've already sent into a conversation, open Message Info, scroll down, and tap Save to Voice Memo.
If you used pre-recorded messages, they're still there, in a folder inside Voice Memos. Zapier workflows that send one keep working, though it's worth pointing them at the voice memo message ID instead.
Use one
- Reply with one. Press and hold on a message card, then More → Reply with saved voice memo.
- Send a new one. Open Voice Memos, find the memo, and share or send it into a conversation.
