voice memos wont let me edit a recording

All but one, will allow me to tap the three dots to edit. Except one. The very one I want to edit/duplicate. Of course. Tapping the 3 dots to the right of a recording is unresponsive. WHY

Unable to save voice memos after recording I am unable to save the recorded voice memo. I open the app, start recording, speak something, I can see the audio waveform in the window. When I press the stop button, the waveform stops but I don’t see any menu option to save it. If I close the app and reopen, the recording is lost. Note the screenshot attached. The done button appears disabled.

Voice memos Why the recording automatically save and then it does not move or share or edit

Issues with voice memos on my iPhone I have been making several voice memos lately and I've encountered a problem a few times that I can't figure out and I need help! Here is an example: I was recording a voice memo today and I was on about minute 25, I paused the recording, clicked out of it to look something up in safari, clicked back into it and started recording again for another 3 minutes. The memo saved the changes, I went back to the home screen and I tried to click on the three dots in the top right so I can add the voice memo to my files. But it is not clickable. I tried hitting the edit button at the top, then selecting the file, but then the "share" button is unclickable as well. However, the file is still listenable. Everything is fine until I got to the part where I paused to look something up. The last 3 minutes were lost. Which is not that big of a deal, I rerecorded those three minutes. But the first 25 is just stuck in the voice memo app and I can't send it in a message or upload it to files or anything. Can anyone help? This has happened a few times and it's very frustrating. Thank you! [Re-Titled by Moderator]

Are you able to hear it? Probably not.

Probably iCloud for the Voice Memo is disabled.
