# MOV to MP3

This converter takes a MOV video, the format iPhones and many cameras record, and saves its sound as an MP3 on your own device. We test H.264 and HEVC clips, and the picture is not decoded, only the sound. No upload happens at any stage. The first use fetches a 32 MB engine from a public CDN.

Runs on your device

## How it works

1. On a phone, save the video to Files if it is only in your photo library.
2. Choose the MOV file here.
3. Pick a quality, 192 kbps is the default.
4. Convert and download the MP3.

## Key facts

- **Tested with**: MOV files with an AAC audio track, using H.264 or HEVC video. We made them with ffmpeg, not on an iPhone.
- **Video**: The picture is not decoded and is left out of the MP3.
- **Compatibility**: MP3 plays on nearly anything, which MOV audio often does not.

## Common uses

- Getting a voice recorded on an iPhone camera into a podcast edit.
- Keeping the sound of a live show filmed on your phone.
- Sharing an interview from a camera with someone who only needs to listen.

## Questions

### Does this work on an iPhone?

We have not tested it on a real iPhone. A phone has less memory than a computer, so a very long video is more likely to fail there.

### Is my video uploaded?

No. Your browser reads the file and ffmpeg runs on your device. The only download is the engine itself, on first use.
