Tap the skip buttons either side of Play to jump back or forward, 10 seconds by default. Change the interval under Settings → Record & Playback on iPhone and iPad, or Settings → General on a Mac.
When you playback a recording, you can rewind or skip forward using the Skip Time buttons, which are located on each end of the Play button.
The default duration for the Skip Time buttons are 10 seconds, but you can control how far ahead you want to skip forward playback and how far back you want to rewind by following the steps below:
iOS
Settings > Record & Playback > Skip Forward/Backward
Choose 5, 10, 15, 30 or 60 seconds. The same interval applies in both directions. You can also change it in a note from ⋯ → Settings.
macOS
Settings > General > Skip Forward/Backward
