- Next up, remove the existing name and then enter the new one.
- Up next, tap on the Save button in the menu.
- Finally, tap on the Done button at the upper right corner of the user interface and you are good to go!

How to Permanently Delete Recordings in Voice Memos on iPhone and iPad
When you delete a recording in the Voice Memos app, it automatically goes into the “Recently Deleted” folder and stays there for up to 30 days after which it is deleted permanently. So, if you want to wipe out a particular recording for good, you will need to remove it from the Recently Deleted folder.
To do so, launch the Voice Memos app -> tap on the Recently Deleted folder -> Tap on the edit button at the upper right corner of the screen -> select the recording you want to eliminate for good, and then hit the Delete button at the bottom of the screen.
