Failure-mode explanation
A voice memo usually breaks for one reason: the recording stopped before the app finished saving it. The phone rang, the battery died, the app crashed, or storage filled up mid-take — so the file was left without the small closing structure a player needs to know where the audio is and how long it runs. Most phone voice memos are M4A files, and this is the most common way they end up unplayable.
The recorded sound is usually still inside the file — only the index that closes it out is missing. FileFix reads what's actually there, rebuilds that closing structure, and re-assembles a file your player can open. You hear a free watermarked preview clip and see exactly how much we recovered before paying.
This works for the large majority of interrupted-recording voice memos. What it can't do is recover a take that never actually captured sound — if the recorder wrote nothing, there's nothing to rebuild.
