    …it lost at least half of what I recorded after I recorded and saved. Very frustrating. Doesn’t seem like there is a way to fix that.

    Voice Recorder & Audio Editor — Missing recordings I recorded a few audio files, but they all got deleted through no reason. Lost them and cant recover them.

    …pp, but over the last few months it has failed to save my recordings. Although the title of the audio file is there, it has zero bytes and the recording is lost. I’ve had to explore other options as this app is no longer reliable
