Turn Screen Recordings Into Audio Files
Upload a screen recording and get an MP3 file back. The converter runs in your browser, handles files up to 2 GB, and keeps the audio track intact. There’s no software to install, no account, and no watermark on any recording or export.
This is built for screen recordings specifically. Upload MP4, WebM, MOV, AVI, MKV, WMV, and FLV captures from QuickTime, iPhone, Android, OBS, Zoom, Loom, or any other recorder and pull the audio out on its own.
What you get:
- A clean MP3 with the video track removed
- The original audio quality kept intact
- Files up to 2 GB, no watermark on any recording or export
- No account required
Need to transcribe what you extract? Drop the MP3 into the audio to text converter once the conversion finishes.
How to Convert Screen Recording to MP3
Three steps, no setup.
- Upload the screen recording: Drag and drop a MP4, WebM, MOV, AVI, MKV, WMV, and FLV file, up to 2 GB.
- Let it convert: The tool strips the video track and keeps the audio.
- Download the MP3: Save the audio file to your device.
Audio quality follows the source recording, so a screen recording made with a good microphone converts cleanly and one recorded from across a room will sound the same as it did on video.
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
- Download the MP3 to Files
The same flow works for Android screen recordings (usually MP4) uploaded through Chrome.

Who Uses It
Students turn lecture recordings into MP3s for offline listening. Audio takes up less storage than video, which matters on a phone that’s already full.
Content creators pull audio out of screen-recorded tutorials to reuse as podcast episodes or shorts voiceovers.
Professionals archive meeting recordings as MP3 to save disk space while keeping the dialogue searchable.
Researchers and journalists extract clean audio from recorded interviews and screen-shared calls for transcription.
If your goal is something other than pulling audio out, swap in the right sibling: the vertical video converter for reframing to 9:16 aspect ratio for Reels and Shorts, the YouTube video cutter online for trimming directly from a YouTube URL without downloading, the video compressor for general file-size reduction across formats, the MP4 compressor for MP4-specific compression, and the vertical video editor for editing tasks beyond a one-shot reframe.
