MOV to MP3 Converter

Drop a MOV file and get an MP3 back. The conversion runs inside this page using WebAssembly, so your video never leaves your computer — which also means there is no upload wait and no file size cap, however large your screen recording is.

Akzeptiert MOV Dateien

Läuft komplett in deinem Browser — deine Datei wird nie hochgeladen.

Brauchst du das in einem Skript oder Backend?

So funktioniert es

1

Choose your MOV file

Drop a .mov file above or click to browse. QuickTime recordings, iPhone videos, and ProRes exports all work.

2

Pick a bitrate

Choose 128, 192, or 320 kbps. 192 kbps is a good default for speech and music alike; 320 kbps keeps the most detail.

3

Download the MP3

Preview the audio right on the page, then download it. Nothing was uploaded, so nothing is stored anywhere.

Hauptfunktionen

Was dieses mov to mp3 auszeichnet.

Your file never leaves the browser

The converter is compiled to WebAssembly and runs on your machine. No upload, no server-side copy, nothing to delete afterwards.

No file size limit

Because there is no upload, a 4GB screen recording converts the same way a 4MB clip does — limited only by your own memory.

Built for QuickTime and iPhone video

Handles the AAC audio Apple devices record, plus ProRes and H.264 MOV exports from Final Cut and QuickTime Player.

Choose your quality

Export at 128, 192, or 320 kbps stereo. The audio is re-encoded properly rather than remuxed, so the result plays anywhere.

No queue, no ads, no signup

Nothing waits in line behind other people’s conversions. Load the page once and it even works offline.

Same conversion available as an API

When you need this in a script or backend, POST the file to /v1/convert/audio and get the MP3 back. Same FFmpeg pipeline, server-side.

Anwendungsfälle

Häufige Szenarien, in denen dieses Tool Zeit spart.

Pull audio from an iPhone recording

iPhone and iPad record video as .mov. Convert an interview or lecture you filmed into an MP3 you can play in any podcast app.

Screen recordings into audio notes

macOS screen recordings save as MOV. Strip the video to keep just the meeting or walkthrough audio at a fraction of the size.

Shrink a file for sharing

A one-hour MOV can be several gigabytes; the same audio at 192 kbps is around 85MB — small enough to email or upload.

Prepare audio for transcription

Most transcription services accept MP3 but not large MOV files. Convert first, then transcribe — or use ParseJet’s MOV to text tool directly.

Extract a soundtrack or voiceover

Reuse the narration or music bed from a finished edit without re-exporting the whole project from your editor.

Batch conversion in a pipeline

Loop a folder of MOV files through the API to build an audio archive — no FFmpeg install and no per-machine setup.

Häufig gestellte Fragen

How do I convert a MOV file to MP3?

Drop the .mov file into the box above, pick a bitrate, and click Convert. The MP3 appears with a player and a download button. The conversion happens inside your browser, so there is no upload step and no waiting in a queue.

Is my video uploaded to a server?

No. The converter is FFmpeg compiled to WebAssembly, running in your own browser tab. Your MOV file is read from disk locally and never sent anywhere. You can confirm this by opening your browser’s network tab during a conversion.

Is there a file size limit?

There is no upload limit because nothing is uploaded. The practical ceiling is your device’s available memory — files up to about 1.5GB convert comfortably on a typical laptop. For anything larger, or for automated batches, use the API instead.

How do I convert MOV to MP3 on a Mac?

This page works in Safari and Chrome on macOS with no install. If you prefer a native route, QuickTime Player can export audio-only as .m4a (File → Export As → Audio Only), but it cannot write MP3 — so you would still need to convert that m4a afterwards.

Can I convert an iPhone video to MP3?

Yes. iPhone records video as .mov with AAC audio, which is exactly what this tool expects. AirDrop or copy the file to your computer first, then drop it in above.

What bitrate should I choose?

For speech — interviews, lectures, meetings — 128 kbps is plenty and keeps files small. For music or anything you will edit further, use 192 or 320 kbps. Note that a higher bitrate cannot add detail the original recording never captured.

Why does my MOV file fail to convert?

The most common reason is that the file has no audio track — a silent screen recording, for example. DRM-protected files bought from a store also cannot be converted. If neither applies, the file may be truncated or still copying from your camera.

Can I convert MOV to MP3 without software?

Yes, that is what this page is. There is nothing to install and no account to create. Once the page has loaded, the converter is cached and works even without a connection.

Is it free? Are there limits?

The browser converter is free and unlimited — it costs us nothing to run because it runs on your machine. The API, for automation, is free for 300 credits per month, with paid plans from $19/month.
