IPhone 6 sent phantom audio message

My iphone 6 was sitting on the table, unlocked as I had just put it down, and it started acting on its own. It opened up an iMessage, recorded an audio message, sent it, and saved it to the recipient's phone. When I tried to listen to the recording it sounded like nothing. Was I hacked?

Your phone might send a text message if you activate iMessage for the first time. The only other message I get after installing new software or restoring the phone is the phone number connected to the SIM card.

  • I changed to a Sumsung S4. I deactivated my iphone.  When some iphones sent me text messages they get error messages.  The texts don't send.  Help?

    I switched from iphone 5 to Samsung S4.   I could not receive messages from iphones.  Learned I needed to deactivate imessaging.  I did.  Iphones give error messages now when sending messages to me,  and I don't get the messages.   Help!

    See this about all the steps to deactivate iMessage. http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5185
    The last step is to contact Apple Support if necessary.

  • How can I simply send audio messages via text, not just to people who have iphones, even basic Nokia phones allow this function? Am I missing something here? IPHONE 6

    How do I on IPHONE 6 have audio message option not just have the option it seems for other people with Iphones. Even Nokia phones have this very BASIC function/? Also how can you BULK DELETE Emails, I get hundreds of junk ones per day, and simply want to go, Select ALL or SELECT ALL READ and then press DELETE ONCE not hundreds of times????

    No, basic Nokia phones do not, and have never had a function to easily send audio messages universally. SMS is a carrier feature and uses a very basic transfer mechanism and works only for short, 160-character messages. Through software, some phones later allowed you to type longer messages that the device then broke up seamlessly and sent as multiple SMS messages. MMS is another carrier service developed to be able to transport multimedia like audio and pictures. Again, very basic transfer and usually slow and low quality. Both of these are again, operator services. Your iPhone can send those messages to non-iPhone users using standard carrier services.
    On the other hand, your iPhone Messages app uses your iPhone data plan - not unlike your home Internet service - to transfer audio, video and images through Apple's iMessage service. Other services exist that do something similar - WhatsApp for example - which also requires both the sender and recipient to use their app for the service to work.
    As for email, Meg is correct. Your email provider is the first line of defense against spam. You should adjust your filters. That said, iOS Mail app had a delete all function, but not in places where it can do more harm than good - i.e. the Inbox. It is present only in the Junk and Trash folders where, presumably, your email provider or you have already been through some decision making process and deemed those emails acceptable to be deleted en masse.

  • Audio Messages in iOS auto expire as expected, but they keep saving automatically on Messages for OSX

    Hi all,
    This morning I was playing around with audio messages with a friend on our iPhones. Everything was working fine. We were sending messages just fine, receiving them just fine, and they were auto-expiring as expected.
    Then once I turned on my computer, I noticed that every time they sent an audio message it would give me a Messages notification on my desktop telling me they sent an attachment. I didn't think much of it because I figured that it was just Messages staying in sync with our conversation over iOS.
    But then they said it started giving them the snapchat-style notifications saying that I was saving their audio messages. Sure enough when I opened Messages, they were all there.
    I dug around the options but couldn't find anything relating to the auto-expiring voice messages. How do I turn this on or toggle it so that attachments people send me that are meant to auto-expire don't get saved?
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    Is this an iOS 8 feature that is waiting for Yosemite ?
    If it is It cannot be discussed here and Apple have other places to do that and doing so may break an NDA that you might have in place.

  • How do I open audio message that is sent to me in gmail

    I am trying to view or listen to a audio message that I received through gmail on my iPhone 6 and I can not get Adobe flash not to familiar with it any help

    There is no Adobe Flash for iOS. If you have been sent a message that needs Flash, you need to read it on a desktop computer. Adobe Reader reads PDF files, nothing else.

  • IPhone audio message disappeared

    My girlfriend today sent me multiple audio messages via iMessage.
    A few minutes after I recieved them, they vanished as if she never sent them. I did not have a chance to save them.
    The audio files sent may/could of been used for a court case, and are of great importance.
    Why did they disappear?
    How do I get them back?
    Thanks,
    - Todd Martin

    Hello, Todd.  
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.  
    I understand that you need access to some audio files that were sent through iMessage.   Audio messages sent through iMessage are set to automatically expire after two minutes unless you actively choose to save them.  If you did not save them by tapping “Keep,” you will not be able to retrieve them at this point, but in the future, you can save important audio messages by tapping Keep or adjust your settings to always save the audio and video messages:
    Keep an audio or video message
    An audio or video message recorded and sent from Messages will expire two minutes after you play it. Before an audio or video message expires, you can tap Keep, under the message, to manually save it in Messages and to your attachments. To view your saved attachments, tap Details while viewing the conversation.
    You can adjust your Messages settings so that your device will automatically save all audio and video messages. Go to Settings > Messages and change the setting for audio or video messages.
    You can't keep audio and video messages longer than you keep your message history. Tap Settings > Messages > Keep Messages and increase this setting if you want to keep audio and video messages longer.
    Send audio, photo, and video messages on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 8

  • Ios 8 iphone can not play audio message in imessage

    Seems I can send sound clips from my iPhone 5, but when someone sends me one I get a box with a ? in it and can not play it even though it says I have received an audio message. If I am at the lock screen I can hit play but then it appears to freeze.
    Any ideas? Below is what I see in my messages.. they should be audio messages.

    Just downloaded it about an hour ago and the same thing happened to me. I guess I should just wait it out then?

  • Can anyone suggest an app to download for SMS messaging for iphone 3G as the message application factory installed is pretty useless and doesnt keep your sent messages in a sent folder

    Can anyone suggest an app to download for SMS messaging for iphone 3G as the message application factory installed is pretty useless and doesnt keep your sent messages in a sent folde and has no folders unlike most messaging features on other phones.
    Many thanks

    Why do you need a Sent folder?  iOS's Messaging interface lays each conversation out like a chat or IM.  Personally, I find that much more convenient.

    This relates to an earlier question I asked:  I have an iPhone and can send messages to a galaxy, but the person cannot receive them; however, I can receive messages from the galaxy.  I have only had an iPhone so the problem does not relate to a change in phones.  Up until about 1month ago I could send to the galaxy and they could be read.  Help!
