How to convert MOV to MP3

Three steps, all in your browser.

1. Choose your MOV files

Drop one or more MOV videos, up to 2 GB each, or pick them from Photos or Files on an iPhone. They are read on your device.

2. Pick the quality

MP3 at 192 kbps is chosen for you. 320 kbps keeps the most detail; 128 kbps is enough for speech.

3. Convert and download

Press Convert. Each MP3 has the video's name with the .mp3 extension.

About the formats

MOV – QuickTime video

Apple's video format: iPhones, iPads, Macs (screen recordings with QuickTime) and many cameras save MOV, usually with AAC sound. Windows, Android and many players and sites don't open MOV, and the files are large.

MP3 – MPEG-1 Audio Layer III

The audio format with the widest support. At 192 kbps a minute of sound takes about 1.4 MB, a small part of the video's size.

WAV, M4A and FLAC

WAV and FLAC keep the sound exactly for editing (up to 30 minutes per file). M4A (AAC at 256 kbps) stays in Apple's format for iTunes and iPhones.

Why people convert MOV to MP3

A song from an iPhone video

Save the music of a concert or a party you filmed as MP3 for your playlist, car or a friend on Android.

Voice from a recording

Turn a filmed talk, a lesson or a voice note recorded as video into a small MP3 you can send anywhere.

Mac screen recordings

QuickTime screen recordings are MOV. Keep only the sound of a recorded call, webinar or tutorial.

Find the song in a video

Press Identify this song next to the result: the sound opens in the AHA Music song finder without choosing the file again.

MOV to MP3: frequently asked questions

How the converter works and what it can do.

How do I convert MOV to MP3?

Choose one or more MOV files above, keep MP3 selected (or pick a quality), press Convert to MP3 and download the result. It runs in your browser, with no upload and no queue.

How do I convert a video on my iPhone to MP3?

Open this page in Safari, tap the box above and choose the video from your photo library or Files. The MOV is converted on the phone and the MP3 is saved to Downloads in Files.

Which MP3 quality should I choose?

192 kbps sounds like the video's own sound for most music. 320 kbps keeps the most detail; 128 kbps is enough for speech and makes the smallest files.

Can I convert long or 4K MOV videos?

Yes. The picture's resolution doesn't matter, because only the sound is converted. Each file can be up to 2 GB; very long videos take longer on a phone than on a computer.

Are my videos uploaded?

No. The sound is extracted inside your browser with a WebAssembly build of FFmpeg. Only the audio engine (about 31 MB) is downloaded, once; your videos never leave your device.

Can I convert several MOV files at once?

Yes, up to 20 videos at a time. They are converted one after another with the same settings, and each gets its own download button.

Can I convert MP4 or other videos here too?

Yes. MP4, M4V, WEBM, MKV and 3GP are converted the same way.

Is it free?

Yes. It needs no account, adds no watermark and does not limit how many videos you convert.
