Pull the audio out of your MOV file and save it as MP3, right in your browser.
Drag and drop the file, or click to browse. Files up to 500 MB are supported, and nothing is installed.
MP3 is already selected. Switch between MP3 and WAV if you change your mind.
We convert on our servers, usually in under a minute. Create a free account to download the MP3, or keep editing the file in REQO.
MOV is Apple’s QuickTime container. It is what an iPhone and Final Cut hand you, and it can hold anything from ordinary H.264 to enormous ProRes masters, which is exactly why it travels badly outside the Apple ecosystem.
The practical problem: Windows and Android often refuse to play MOV files, or play the picture with no sound. ProRes MOV files from a camera or Final Cut can be ten times larger than the same footage as MP4. Some upload forms reject the extension even when the video inside is ordinary H.264.
MP3 solves that. Plays on every phone, car stereo, browser and podcast host in existence. Small enough to attach to an email or send in a chat. Accepted by every transcription and podcast service.
| MOV | MP3 | |
|---|---|---|
| Container | Apple QuickTime | MPEG audio layer III |
| Typical codecs | H.264, HEVC or ProRes | MP3 (lossy) |
| Best for | Editing on a Mac, footage straight off an iPhone | Podcasts, voice notes, music you need to send |
| Plays on | macOS and iOS natively, patchy elsewhere | Every device made in the last 25 years |
| File size | Large, especially ProRes | Roughly a tenth of uncompressed audio |
Yes. Convert and preview the result for free, then create a free account to download it. There is no per-file charge and no watermark on the MP3 itself beyond the free-plan badge.
No. The conversion runs on our servers and the whole flow happens in your browser, so it works the same on Windows, macOS, Linux, iPhone and Android.
The audio is decoded from the video and written as MP3. MP3 is a lossy format, so there is a small re-encode, inaudible for speech at the default quality. The picture is discarded entirely, which is why the file gets so much smaller.
Up to 500 MB per file. For anything bigger, trim or compress it first, both are free tools here.
Your upload is processed and then held only as long as your project needs it. Nothing is published, indexed or shared unless you create a share link yourself.
