MP3 Converter

Convert, edit and keep your own audio

Take the audio out of a video, turn a file into the format your car, your DAW or your old player actually reads, then trim it, merge it, boost it or cut a ringtone from it. Every step runs on the phone — no upload, no account, nothing waiting in someone else’s queue.

01

Convert

Stream-copy first

The engine is an FFmpeg build we compile ourselves. It reads far more than it writes, which is the point.

Formats MP3 Converter reads and writes
Video in MP4, MOV, M4V, MKV, AVI, WEBM, WMV, FLV, 3GP, MPEG, TS
Audio in MP3, M4A, AAC, FLAC, WAV, AIFF, OGG, OPUS, WMA, APE, WavPack, AMR, CAF, TTA
Audio out MP3, M4A (AAC), ALAC, FLAC, WAV, AIFF, Opus, M4R (ringtone)
Video out MP4 (H.264), MOV (HEVC) — hardware encoded
  1. 01

    Video to audio, audio to audio, video to video

    Pull the track out of a film, change a format your player refuses, or re-encode a clip to something smaller.

  2. 02

    Lossless extraction when the file allows it

    If the audio inside a container can be copied out untouched, we copy it. No re-encode, no generation loss, and it takes seconds rather than minutes.

  3. 03

    Controls that say what they do

    Bitrate, sample rate and channels, with the trade-off spelled out next to each one instead of a slider marked “quality”.

  4. 04

    A queue that survives

    Conversions run one at a time so the phone stays cool, continue while you are in another app, and post a notification when the queue empties. A relaunch resumes what was pending.

  5. 05

    Tags and artwork carried across

    Title, artist, album and embedded cover art follow the file into its new format instead of being dropped on the way.

02

Studio

Not a DAW

A small editor that finishes the job.

The handful of edits a converted file usually still needs — and nothing that would need a manual.

  1. 01

    Trim, split and merge

    Cut on the waveform, split at the playhead, join a set of files into one track.

  2. 02

    Layers with real controls

    Per-clip gain, fades, pitch and tempo, mute and solo, laid out on a timeline and mixed down sample-exactly on export.

  3. 03

    Ringtones

    Thirty seconds or less, written as .m4r — the format iOS installs ringtones from.

  4. 04

    One-shot tools

    Normalise, boost, compress, denoise, reverse, mono to stereo, and a metered microphone recorder that drops straight into the library.

03

Library

Everything in one place

  1. 01

    A player that opens what the system will not

    MKV, AVI, OGG, WMA, APE and the rest play inside the app before you decide what to do with them — AV1 video included.

  2. 02

    Your files, organised

    Playlists, favourites, recents, search, waveforms, artwork, and a tag editor that writes back into the file itself.

  3. 03

    Get files in without a cable

    Wi-Fi transfer from a browser on your own network, the share sheet from any app, paste from the clipboard, Files and Photos.

  4. 04

    On the Home Screen and Lock Screen

    Widgets for now playing, quick actions and recent conversions, plus a Live Activity while a conversion runs.

Premium

The free version is not a demo

What a purchase changes, and what it leaves alone.

Feature Free Premium
Conversions Three a day No cap
Files at once One The whole queue
Audio formats out MP3, M4A, Opus Adds ALAC, FLAC, WAV, AIFF
Lossless extraction Included Included
Studio, player, library Everything Everything

Weekly, annual, or a one-time lifetime unlock; prices are shown in the app for your region. Subscriptions renew until cancelled in your Apple Account settings — the lifetime unlock renews nothing.

05

Privacy

No account

Your files never leave the phone, because there is nowhere to send them.

  • No account and no sign-in — nothing to identify you by.
  • Conversion, editing and playback all run on the device.
  • The library is not exposed to other apps through the Files app.
  • Purchases go through Apple; we never see payment details.

The free version carries advertising and sends anonymous usage events, both of which are described in full — including who receives what — in the privacy policy.

Questions

Before you download

01 Does MP3 Converter upload my files anywhere?

No. Conversion, editing and playback all run on the device, using the engine built into the app. There is no server of ours to upload to, and the app works with the network switched off.

02 What does “lossless extraction” mean?

Most videos already contain an audio track your phone can play. When the container allows it, the app copies that track out byte for byte instead of re-encoding it — so the result is identical to the audio inside the original file, and it finishes in seconds.

03 Which formats can it write?

Audio: MP3, M4A (AAC), ALAC, FLAC, WAV, AIFF and Opus, plus .m4r for ringtones. Video: MP4 with H.264 and MOV with HEVC, both through Apple’s hardware encoders.

04 What is free and what needs Premium?

The free version converts three files a day, one at a time, to MP3, M4A or Opus, and lossless extraction is included. Premium removes the daily cap, adds batch conversion of a whole queue, and unlocks the lossless output formats. The player, the library and the Studio tools are not behind the paywall.

05 Can I make a ringtone with it?

Yes. The Ringtone tool trims a track to thirty seconds or less and exports it as .m4r, which is the format iOS installs ringtones from.

06 Is it in my language?

The app ships in 28 languages, including English, Turkish, German, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Dutch, Polish, Czech, Hungarian, Romanian, Swedish, Finnish, Norwegian, Russian, Ukrainian, Arabic, Hindi, Bengali, Thai, Vietnamese, Indonesian, Malay, Japanese, Korean and Chinese in both simplified and traditional script. It follows your device language automatically.

07 Does it work on iPad?

Yes. The app is built for both iPhone and iPad and requires iOS or iPadOS 17.0 or later.
