About the Extract audio
Extract the audio track from a video file directly in your browser — no upload, no account, no desktop editor required. Handytool pulls sound out of MP4, MOV, WebM, and MKV files and lets you save it as MP3, WAV, OGG, or M4A. It’s ideal for turning interviews into audio clips, grabbing podcast tracks from video recordings, or saving music from a rough cut while keeping the whole process private on your own device.
