Where do voice messages save on Android?

Answered by John Hunt

On Android devices, voice messages are typically saved in the Message app or the default messaging app that you use for text conversations. To locate voice messages, you can follow these steps:

1. Open the Message app on your Android phone. This app might have different names, such as Messages or Messaging, depending on the device and the Android version you are using.

2. Within the Message app, navigate to the conversation where you received the voice message. Look for the contact or group chat that corresponds to the conversation containing the voice message you are trying to find.

3. Tap on the conversation to open it and view the messages. Look for the specific voice message you want to locate. It should be represented by a voice recording icon or a play button.

4. Once you find the voice message, you can tap on it to listen to it or download it if necessary. Some messaging apps may automatically download voice messages, while others may require you to manually download them by tapping on the message.

Alternatively, you can try accessing the voice messages through your phone’s file manager:

1. Open the “My Files” or “File Manager” app on your Android device. This app is usually pre-installed on most Android phones, but the name may vary depending on the manufacturer.

2. Within the file manager app, navigate to the “Download” folder. This folder is typically where downloaded files, including voice messages, are saved by default.

3. In the “Download” folder, you should see a list of files, including audio files. Look for the voice message you want to find. It might have a filename extension like .amr, .aac, or .mp3.

4. Once you locate the desired voice message, you can tap on it to play or access it using a suitable media player installed on your device.

It’s important to note that the exact location of voice messages may vary depending on the messaging app you use and any customizations made by your device manufacturer. The steps provided above are general guidelines, and the specific process may differ slightly on your particular Android phone.
