About MOV to MP3
iPhones and Macs save videos as MOV. If you only need the sound, for a voice note, a speech or a recording of live music, an MP3 is far smaller and plays everywhere.
The MOV is opened by your browser, the sound is encoded to MP3 on your device, and nothing is sent to a server. Family videos and private recordings stay with you.
Choose 128 kbps for speech, 192 kbps for most music, or 320 kbps for the best MP3 quality. A minute of sound takes roughly 1 MB at 128 kbps and 2.4 MB at 320 kbps, however large the MOV is, because the picture is not kept.
Videos straight from an iPhone work, including long ones; the sound inside is usually AAC, which modern browsers decode quickly. You can drop several MOV files at once and download the MP3s together as a ZIP. After the page has loaded, it also works offline.
Questions and answers

About 1.4 MB per minute at 192 kbps, much smaller than the video. The result shows the size before and after.
No. An MP3 holds sound only. To keep the video, use MOV to MP4 instead.
