Frequently Asked Questions

Can I extract audio from an iPhone MOV video?

Yes. iPhone MOV files are fully supported. The video track is discarded and only the AAC audio is extracted. Choosing AAC output gives a lossless stream copy — no re-encoding, no quality loss.

Can I extract audio from a QuickTime screen recording?

Yes. QuickTime screen recordings saved as .mov are supported. The extracted audio will contain whatever was captured during recording — microphone input, system audio, or both.

Will extracting audio from MOV lose quality?

When the source codec matches the output (e.g. AAC → AAC), FFmpeg performs a lossless stream copy. Conversion to MP3 involves one re-encode at high quality settings — the difference is negligible for most use cases.

Is my file kept private?

Yes. Your MOV file and extracted audio are automatically deleted within 60 minutes. We never store or analyse your content.
