so every time i send a voice memo in iMessage, it ALWAYS says it fails—but the person i’m sending it to always receives it perfectly fine. why does the message failure keep coming up on my end when the message is going through?

Hello and welcome to Apple Support Communities Alyssa-Gibson,
I see that you're getting an error when sending audio messages, that they were not delivered, but the recipient receives the message. I can understand your concern, and I'd be glad to look into this with you.
Let's start by having you force close the Messages app, restart your iPhone and test to see if the issue remains.

hi jameson,
i've tried restarting my phone & updating it but it still says failed.
its every time i send one, doesn’t matter the contact or if i’m on wifi or not, i’ve tried.
i got the iphone 11 in november, and i can’t remember if it has always done this, but i can’t remember having an issue in the beginning. it’s been happening for a while now.
Hello Alyssa-Gibson,
Thanks for the update on this issue. Since the issue persists, you'd want to reach out to Apple Support to look into this further. You can reach them with the link below.
