Convert any video to MP3
Videos come in many formats. iPhones record MOV, Android phones and cameras record MP4, screen recorders and OBS often save MKV, browsers and some apps produce WebM, and older cameras and DVD rips use AVI. Whatever the format, this video to MP3 converter pulls out the soundtrack and saves it as an MP3 that plays on any phone, computer, car stereo or speaker. It is the quick way to turn a recorded lecture, webinar, interview, sermon, concert clip or voice note into audio you can listen to anywhere.
Supported video formats
- MP4 and M4V: the most common video format from phones, cameras and the web.
- MOV: videos from iPhone, iPad and Mac.
- MKV: recordings from OBS and many downloaded videos.
- WebM: browser screen recordings and web videos.
- AVI: older camera clips and rips. These use a built-in FFmpeg engine that loads only when needed.
If a video has no sound track, the tool tells you instead of producing a silent file.
Choose the MP3 quality
Pick 128 kbps for talks, lessons and meetings, where clear speech matters more than size. Keep the default 192 kbps for most music. Choose 256 or 320 kbps for concerts and music where you want every detail. A 60-minute lecture at 128 kbps is about 58 MB, small enough to keep on your phone for offline listening.
Private: your video stays on your device
Uploading a long video to an online converter can take longer than listening to it, and recordings of classes, meetings and family events are not something you want on a stranger’s server. VideoToolsFlow converts video to MP3 inside your browser. The audio is decoded and encoded to MP3 on your own device, and the file is saved to your downloads. Nothing is uploaded, so large videos are handled without waiting for an upload, and there is no sign-up needed, no watermark and no daily limit.

About YouTube to MP3
Many people search for a YouTube video to MP3 converter. This tool does not download from YouTube or any other website, and downloading content you do not own may break the site’s terms. It works with video files that are already on your device, such as your own recordings, or videos you have the rights to use. If you made the video yourself, you can use the original file from your phone or computer.
Getting clear audio from a video
The MP3 can only be as good as the sound in the video. Phone videos filmed far from the speaker often sound thin or quiet, so boost them afterwards rather than choosing a higher bitrate. For long recordings, 128 kbps keeps files small without hurting speech. If you plan to edit the audio in a program like Audacity, convert to WAV instead, then export to MP3 when you are done.
After converting
Trim the MP3 with the audio cutter, combine several recordings with the audio joiner, or make a quiet recording louder with the volume booster. For MP4 files specifically, see MP4 to MP3. To remove the sound from a video instead, use mute video.
