You can mark audio recordings as favorites and organize your recordings into folders.
Recordings you mark as favorites automatically appear in the Favorites folder. Related recordings can go together into folders, so you can locate them easily, and you can delete or reorder folders later. You can also mark several recordings as favorites at once, and move recordings into a folder.
Here’s how to organize recordings in Voice Memos on iPad.
Note: Smart Folders hold your Apple Watch recordings, recently deleted recordings, and favorites, gathering files automatically by type and subject matter.
