AuCutStep by step
-
Share the voice memo to AuCut. In Voice Memos, open the recording, tap the share button and choose AuCut. It opens on your iPhone, ready to trim.
-
Drag the ends to the part you want. On the waveform, drag the two ends, then fine-tune each cut to a tenth of a second while AuCut plays the audio around it.
-
Boost the volume or add a fade. If the memo starts too quietly or ends abruptly, boost or normalize the volume, or add a fade in or out.
-
Save and share. Choose M4A, MP3 or WAV, then save the file or share it to Messages, Mail or another app.

Other ways to do it
- Voice Memos’ own trim works for its recordings. AuCut also opens audio from other places and saves MP3 or WAV.
- Online tools make you upload the recording, which is a private conversation in many cases.
Questions people ask
Does AuCut change the original voice memo?
No. AuCut makes a new file with the part you keep, and your original stays in Voice Memos.
Can I clean up a voice memo in one step?
Yes. AuCut has a one-step clean-up for voice memos with noise reduction, and it can cut out silent gaps. Then trim the ends on the waveform if you want to be exact.
