How to stop audio messages from disappearing on iPhone and iPad
Audio messages in the Messages app are cool little ways of communicating without text. You can tell someone you love them, send them a song clip, or just ask what’s up, all with your own voice.
The thing about audio messages, however, is that they don’t hang around forever. By default, they expire after two minutes of sending or listening to them, not to be heard again. This might be fine for some but not for others.
If you fall into the “others” category and want to hang onto those clips, here’s how to stop audio messages from expiring in the Messages app on iPhone and iPad.

How to change the skip seconds for Podcasts and Books on iPhone and iPad
If you use your iPhone or iPad to listen to podcasts in the Podcasts app or audiobooks in the Books app, then you probably know about the skip feature. You can skip back a few seconds to catch something you missed or skip forward to move past something you have already heard.
