reverse audio on iphone

Do you want to reverse audio on your iPhone? Well, we’ve got you covered!

You may want to record some audio and then reverse it, or you already have some audio you would like to reverse.

We will explain two methods that you can use to reverse audio.

Let’s get right into this!

Method 1: Use Voice Changer Plus to reverse audio

For this first method, we will explain how you can use an app to reverse audio.

1. Download Voice Changer Plus

Firstly, you need to download Voice Changer Plus from the Apple App Store.

So, open the App Store and tap on the search button in the bottom navigation bar.

This is needed because your voice needs to be recorded using your microphone.

3. Record the audio you want to reverse

The next thing you need to do is record the audio you want to reverse.

You can either speak, or you can play back a sound from another device you would like to reverse as well.

So, tap on the Record button which looks like a microphone in a red circle, and either speak or play some audio you would like to reverse.
