The AMR codec was removed from iOS in version 3.2 (I think). Ah no, 4.3 (thanks, Eric D.). The only reference I ever found to this was in the dev forums (login required).

The strange thing is, while kAudioFormatAMR was removed in iOS 4.3, it looks like kAudioFormatAMR_WB was added to OSX 10.10 (Yosemite).
