Apple's latest system upgrade: 'Voice Memos' 'Title encryption protects user privacy'

According to news on September 20, Apple has implemented a major security upgrade in the latest iOS 17, iPadOS 17 and macOS
Sonoma systems, affecting its popular "Voice Memos" application. According to Apple’s official update log, this upgrade not only encrypts the recording itself, but also includes the title information of the recording within the scope of encryption protection. The core purpose of this adjustment is to improve the level of user privacy protection. From now on, all Voice Memo recordings stored in iCloud will receive higher security, and the titles of the recordings will no longer be exposed in the cloud. This means that even if a hacker or unauthorized person were able to access iCloud, they would not be able to easily obtain the recording's title information. This is a welcome change for users who store sensitive information in their voice memos.

However, with the encryption of the title, it also brings certain usage problems. It is understood that users will be able to access the titles of recordings normally on devices that have been upgraded to iOS 17, iPadOS 17 or macOS Sonoma.

However, for devices still using older versions of the Voice Memos app, display issues may occur. These devices may display the date and time of the recording (for example, "2023-08-11T07:53:31Z") as the title instead of the previous recording title.

Therefore, Apple recommends users to upgrade all devices to the latest OS version where possible to ensure full title access and consistency. This change demonstrates Apple’s commitment to user privacy and its ongoing efforts to provide a more secure experience.
