Why are my Voice Memos missing after iOS 8 update?

Voice Memos missing after iOS 8 update

I noticed that all of my voice memos are gone after my upgrade to iOS 8 (currently running 8.0.2). If I reboot my 5S and open the voice memo app, it looks like it's trying to load the memos (looks very glitchy), then they all just disappear. My wife's is missing some on her 5S, too, but she does have some that show up; she updated to 8.0.

Thank you

Re: Voice Memos missing after iOS 8 update

Welcome to iMore! Did you need to keep those memos? Were you backed up to iCloud? You might recover them from an iCloud restore. When you say a reboot, do you mean a hard reset or a soft reset? If you have not done a hard reset, try that. Hold the top power/sleep button and the home button at the same time until the Apple logo appears, then release.
