Voice Memos lets you use iPhone as a portable recording device using the built-in 
microphone, iPhone or Bluetooth headset mic, or supported external microphone.
Note:  External microphones must be designed to work with the iPhone headset

accessories marked with the Apple “Works with iPhone” logo.
You can adjust the recording level by moving the microphone closer to or further

deleted from the Voice Memos playlist in iTunes. However, if you delete a voice memo 
from iTunes, it is deleted from iPhone the next time you sync with iTunes.
