Turn Screen Recordings Into Audio Files
Upload any screen recording and get an MP3 file in seconds. The converter runs in your browser, handles files up to 2GB, and keeps the original audio quality. No software to install, no account, no watermark.
This is built for screen recordings specifically. Upload MP4, MOV, WebM, or AVI screen captures from QuickTime, iPhone, Android, OBS, Zoom, Loom, or any recorder and pull clean audio out of them.
Common reasons people convert screen recording to MP3:
- Save 90% storage by dropping the video track from lecture and meeting recordings
- Make long recordings listenable during commutes, walks, and workouts
- Prep audio for transcription or podcast editing
- Keep searchable audio archives of calls, interviews, and presentations
Need to transcribe what you extract? Drop the MP3 into the audio transcription tool when the conversion finishes.
How to Convert Screen Recording to MP3
Three steps, no setup.
- Upload screen recording - Drag and drop MP4, MOV, WebM, or AVI files up to 2GB
- Pick bitrate - 128kbps for voice, 192kbps for general use, 320kbps for music
- Download the MP3 - Most files finish in under 3 minutes
The tool strips the video track and keeps the audio intact. Files are encrypted during processing and deleted after 24 hours.
iPhone Screen Recording to MP3
iPhone screen recordings save as MOV files in your Photos app. To convert one to MP3:
- Open Photos and select the screen recording
- Tap Share and save it to Files (or AirDrop to a Mac)
- Open this page in Safari and upload the MOV
- Choose 192kbps and download the MP3 to Files
The same flow works for Android screen recordings (usually MP4) uploaded through Chrome.

FAQ
How do I convert a screen recording to MP3?
Upload your screen recording file (MP4, MOV, WebM, or AVI), choose MP3 as the output, and pick a bitrate between 128kbps and 320kbps. The tool extracts the audio in 2 to 5 minutes for most files. No installation or signup.
How do I turn an iPhone screen recording into an audio file?
Save the screen recording from Photos to Files, open this page in Safari, upload the MOV, and download the MP3. The audio keeps its original quality because iPhone recordings use AAC at 128kbps or higher.
What screen recording formats does the converter support?
MP4, MOV, WebM, AVI, and MKV. That covers QuickTime on Mac, the built-in iPhone and Android recorders, OBS, Loom, Zoom, Google Meet exports, and most other capture tools.
How long does the conversion take?
A 30-minute screen recording usually finishes in under 3 minutes. Files over 1GB take 5 to 10 minutes. Conversion runs in the browser, so leave the tab open while it works.
Does converting to MP3 reduce audio quality?
320kbps MP3 is near-identical to the source for speech and music. 192kbps works for most meeting and lecture recordings. 128kbps is fine for voice-only content and produces the smallest file.
What bitrate should I pick?
Use 128kbps for voice recordings and podcasts, 192kbps for mixed content, and 320kbps when the recording has music or you plan to edit it further.
Is it really free with no watermark?
Yes. Unlimited conversions, no watermark, no signup, 2GB per file. The service stays free because MP3 extraction is inexpensive to run compared to video editing.
Are my files private?
Files upload over HTTPS, get encrypted with AES-256 during processing, and delete automatically after 24 hours. Nothing is shared or used for training.
Can I convert a screen recording to MP3 on Android?
Yes. Open this page in Chrome, upload the MP4 from your Files app, and download the MP3 back to your phone. The flow works the same on tablets.
