Frequently asked questions

Is my MP4 uploaded to a server to turn it into M4A?

No. The MP4 to M4A conversion runs entirely in your browser, with code downloaded from this site and executed on your device. You can check it in the Network tab of the developer tools or by going offline after the page loads.

Can I extract only part of the MP4 audio?

Yes: in the options set the start and end time, for example from 1:30 to 2:45, and only that clip is extracted.

Is there a size limit?

Up to 2 GB and 3 hours of video on desktop; on mobile, 500 MB and 30 minutes (AVI: 1 GB and 1 hour on desktop). If it is over, you are told before it starts and can trim it.

Can I convert several MP4 files at once?

Yes. Drop as many MP4 files as you like: several are converted at the same time, depending on your processor cores, and when they finish you can download each M4A or all of them in a ZIP.
