Some moments are worth keeping just for the sound β a song in a clip, a lecture, an interview, a voice memo buried in a video. Audly pulls the audio track out of any video and saves it as a clean M4A file you can share or keep. No ads. No subscription. Pay once and extract forever. β’ ANY VIDEO IN, AUDIO OUT β pick a video and Audly extracts its sound into a shareable M4A (AAC) file. β’ SEE IT FIRST β check the duration and file size before you extract, then preview the audio right after. β’ SHARE OR SAVE TO FILES β send it to Messages, Voice Memos, your Mac, or drop it straight into the Files app. β’ 100% ON DEVICE β every extract happens on your iPhone. Nothing is ever uploaded. β’ NO ADS, NO SUBSCRIPTION β the audio-extractor apps everyone knows are stuffed with ads or locked behind a weekly fee. This one isn't. Pay once and it's yours. Note: audio is saved as M4A / AAC β the native iPhone audio format β at full quality. Pay once ($4.99 to unlock unlimited extracts). No ads, no subscription, no account, no sign-up. Tap Select Video, tap Extract Audio, share or save. Done.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: ScanBug at none against Audly's 1. ScanBug also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs every 3 weeks). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
