Cut the part you want and keep it. MP3 Cutter opens your music, voice memos, podcasts, recordings, and the audio inside any video, then lets you keep just the section that matters. Pick a file or import a video and the sound pulls in instantly, with a live progress bar so you are never stuck staring at a frozen screen. Slide two handles to the start and end of the part you care about. Listen to the preview. Export. The clip lands ready to share, set as a ringtone, or save for later. Shape the sound, not just the length: Reverse flips the whole track so it plays backward. Speed changes the tempo smoothly, faster or slower. Normalize lifts a quiet clip up to a full, even level. Fade eases the start and end in and out so there are no harsh cuts. Gain nudges the overall volume exactly where you want it. Your work is never lost. Every cut is kept in a Projects library and reopens right where you left off, so you can start on the train and finish at home. Everything happens on your device. No uploading, no waiting on a server, no quality loss. The original file stays untouched on your phone. Works with mp3, m4a, wav, aac, aiff, caf, and audio extracted from video. Export to mp3, wav, or m4a. Plays back at the same quality you imported. Use it to: Pull the one good line out of a long voice memo. Save a one-minute highlight from an hour-long lecture. Crop a podcast intro before you save it for the road. Turn a song you already own into a custom ringtone. Split a long recording into parts you can rename and reopen later. Built for people who want a clean audio cut without learning a full studio. Tap, drag, shape, export. That is the whole flow.

Pull the audio out of your videos — instantly, and entirely on your iPhone. SoundPull extracts the sound from videos you own and saves it as MP3, M4A (AAC) or WAV. Recorded a lecture, an interview, a rehearsal, or a voice memo as a video? Get just the audio in a couple of taps — no uploads, no watermark, no ads. WHY SOUNDPULL - Fully on-device. The conversion runs on the phone in your hand; there is no server behind SoundPull and nothing to sign in to. - Your choice of format. MP3, M4A (AAC) or WAV — whichever the app or device on the other end expects. - No watermark, no ads. The audio you get is just your audio. - Fast. Extraction runs locally using Apple's own media engine. - Trim before extracting. Take just the section you need instead of the whole recording. - Batch extraction. Queue several videos and let them run one after another. - Ringtones. Export a section as M4R and set it as your ringtone through GarageBand. - Transcription. Turn the speech in a recording into text, recognized on your iPhone — so it keeps working with no connection at all. - Silent video. Save the video itself with its audio track removed. - Pick the audio track, and even out recordings that came out too quiet. - Audio files, too. Convert M4A, MP3 and WAV recordings — voice memos included — to the format you need. - Merge. Join several videos or recordings into one audio file, in the order you choose. HOW IT WORKS 1. Pick a video from your photo library or Files — or send one to SoundPull from another app. 2. SoundPull pulls out the audio track on your device. 3. Listen to the result, then keep it in Files or hand it over to a different app. WHAT PEOPLE USE IT FOR - Lectures and classes filmed on a phone, turned into audio for the commute - Interviews and meetings kept as small audio files instead of large video - Music practice, rehearsals and live sets you recorded yourself - Voice memos you accidentally captured as video - Source material for a podcast or a video essay you are producing - Language study — listening back to your own recordings without watching WORKS WITH YOUR VIDEOS SoundPull reads the video formats your iPhone already understands, including MP4, MOV and M4V files recorded on your device, screen recordings, and clips received through AirDrop, Files or other apps. If a video carries an audio track and iOS can read it, SoundPull can pull the sound out of it. Videos with no audio track are detected before extraction starts and explained in plain language, so you are never left staring at a failure you cannot interpret. MADE FOR YOUR OWN CONTENT SoundPull is for audio from videos you created or have the right to use — your recordings, your projects. It does not work with DRM-protected content and never bypasses copy protection. ONE PURCHASE, THAT'S IT Buy SoundPull once and everything is unlocked — unlimited extractions, forever. No subscription, no ads, no upsells. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Lectures, interviews and meetings often contain things that were never meant to leave the room. SoundPull has no server to send them to: your recordings are decoded and converted on the iPhone itself, and the app collects nothing about you or the files you open. Turn your videos into audio you can actually use — with SoundPull.
