What changes in this conversion

  • MP3 uses lossy compression, so some audio detail is discarded permanently in exchange for a much smaller file.
  • MP3 opens almost everywhere, so the converted file will work on devices and programs that refused the original MOV.
  • Only the audio track is kept — the video picture is discarded, so the result is far smaller than the original MOV file.

How to use

  1. Add your MOV file

    Drag the MOV file onto the drop area above, or click it to pick a file from your device. You can add several files at once.

  2. Confirm MP3 as the output

    MP3 is already selected as the output format on this page. You can pick the bitrate — higher keeps more of the sound, lower makes a smaller file.

  3. Run the conversion

    Press the convert button. Video is re-encoded frame by frame on your own machine, so a long clip can take several minutes. The tab has to stay open.

  4. Download the MP3 file

    When it finishes, download the MP3 file. Converting multiple files gives you the option to download them together as a ZIP.

Frequently asked questions

Is converting MOV to MP3 really free?

Yes. MOV to MP3 conversion is completely free with no signup, no watermark, and no daily limit on the free plan for ordinary use.

Are my MOV files uploaded to a server?

No. The conversion runs entirely inside your browser using WebAssembly, so the MOV file never leaves your device. That is also why it works without an internet connection once the page has loaded.

Does converting MOV to MP3 reduce quality?

MP3 uses lossy compression, so some detail is discarded. At high quality settings the difference is usually invisible, and the file becomes far smaller.

Does the picture disappear when I convert MOV to MP3?

Yes — MP3 is an audio format, so only the soundtrack is extracted. The video track is dropped, which is usually the point when you want just the audio.

Is there a file size limit for MOV to MP3 conversion?

The free plan handles files up to 200MB. Because processing happens on your own device, very large files depend on your computer's memory rather than a server quota.
