How to Extract Audio from a Video on iPhone

Sometimes the video is just packaging — the concert audio, the lecture, the voice note someone sent as a clip. Here's how to pull the sound out and keep it as its own file.

The quick answer

Open the video in Video To MP4's Extract Audio tool and save the soundtrack as a separate audio file. The whole process runs on your device in seconds.

Step-by-step: video → audio file

1. Open Video To MP4 → Extract (Audio from Video).
2. Pick the video from Photos or Files.
3. Extract. The audio track is pulled out without re-recording, so the quality is exactly what was in the video.
4. Save or share the audio file — send it, file it, or import it into other apps. (Premium unlocks every export format.)

What people actually use this for

Lecture recordings that only need listening; concert clips where the video is a shaky crowd but the audio is gold; voice memos trapped inside screen recordings; podcast or interview clips to quote; a song from a performance video for offline listening.

Only need part of the audio?

Trim the video to the section you want first, then extract — you get a clean audio clip of just that segment, no editing app required.
