Offline listening basics · Keep a video’s audio

Take the sound of a video with you.

Keep music, explanations and interviews without leaving the video open.

Quick answer

TuneTrace records a video’s sound while it plays, then lets you save the audio to your library. You need to play the content; pasting a link or importing a video file does not convert it directly.

Common questions

Can I import an MP4 from Photos directly?

TuneTrace’s import tools accept audio files. Extract the sound from an existing video with a suitable tool first, then import that audio.

Will video ads be recorded too?

Yes. After recording, cut separate ads into their own clips and skip those clips when saving.

Only record audio you have permission to save. The source app or iOS may restrict recording.
