Anne,
As Sieghard said, what issues are you having with Voice Memos?

Another free app to try that gives excellent recording quality is Dolby ON.
You can save to DropBox in M4a format, I don’t think MP3 is an option.
After you record a track, you can rename it, then double tap on share, then on 
More audio apps, then save to Dropbox is one of the choices.
A little tedious to get to the save, but the sound quality is excellent.
Here is the app store link:

Subject: RE: Thanks and a question

Could you explain what you find difficult about the Voice Memos app and what 
features you want in a recording app?
The only feature where I could see why somebody may want to use a third party 
app is if you want your voice memos to sync to Dropbox.
Apart from that I find the voice memos app about as easy as they get, but if 
you want Dropbox syncing then an app called 
RecUp<https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fapps.apple.com%2Fus%2Fapp%2Frecup-record-to-the-cloud%2Fid416288287&data=02%7C01%7C%7Cf66c6d90ae4f495f3e0508d78bbb303d%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C637131508384201569&sdata=q2XrsFs2nj0W%2BNpZcdC0r%2F3AvZNTcGgD3H6Sl8QNBwA%3D&reserved=0>
 may be what you want, I think it’s $1.99 in the US and it’s also a very simple 
app which you can set to start recording when you open it or you can start 
recording manually. There is no editing capability and it hasn’t been updated 
in over a year which may or may not become an issue with future iOS versions if 
the developer has decided to abandon it. You can click on the link I provided 
to check it out.
If you want even more features there is Just Press 
Record<https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fapps.apple.com%2Fus%2Fapp%2Fjust-press-record%2Fid1033342465&data=02%7C01%7C%7Cf66c6d90ae4f495f3e0508d78bbb303d%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C637131508384201569&sdata=wLA8DLBz0ukm3tCYFD%2F6z3E0hn5YnMis4BZdenMy5Do%3D&reserved=0>
 which is $4.99 in the US app store. It will not sync to Dropbox, but  you can 
set it up to sync to iCloud Drive and if you need access to your recordings on 
a PC you could install the iCloud for Windows app which will create an iCloud 
Drive folder and you can then find your recordings in there, but only in WAV or 
MP4, looks like recording in MP3 format is no tan option.
The advantage with this app is that there is also an Apple Watch version for 
those who have one of those and the app can transcribe a recording to text, but 
of course this is subject to voice recognition and we all know how good or not 
good this can be in some situations. I never tried it, but some of the reviews 
mention it’s not so great. But the developer of Just Press Record seems to be 
more active, they have a number of other apps and it was just updated a couple 
of weeks ago.
It does, however, mentions iOS 13 as a requirement. Maybe that is just for some 
features and maybe it can still be installed on a phone with iOS 12, not sure 
about that.
There are of course any number of other voice recording apps, you may want to 
check the Applevis 
website<https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.applevis.com%2F&data=02%7C01%7C%7Cf66c6d90ae4f495f3e0508d78bbb303d%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C637131508384211578&sdata=j%2BpyLEMbyqST1%2BZj07VIhlAxp09L9hxtmeYF5L%2F6iwk%3D&reserved=0>

Subject: Thanks and a question

Big smile! Thanks for the warm welcome to the list.

I am Secretary of 2 amateur radio clubs and would like suggestions as to the 
best iPhone app for recording meetings. I am currently using voice memos for 
the job but there has to be an easier app. I also record for the Library for 
the Blind Advisory Committee Secretary.

Thanks in advance and have a great day.

Anne
