But while YouTube provides a way to do this on mobile devices (YouTube Premium), the site offers no official means for saving YouTube clips on a Mac. So, here we'll turn to the unofficial YouTube.

I recently covered apps that help you extract audio from video on Android smartphones and thought it would be a good idea to write a guide for our iOS users too. While iOS is more closed of a platform when compared to Android, there are some apps and shortcuts to extract audio from video on your iPhone.
Here are five such apps in no particular order.
1. Shortcuts
Shortcuts, previously known as Workflow, is a neat little app that you can use to create shortcuts to many tasks like logging water, steps, weight, sharing pics and more with the click of a button. You can create shortcuts and then share it with the community at large.
Launch the Safari browser and open this shortcut and tap on Get This Shortcut. That should open in the Shortcuts app. Now tap on Allow Access and confirm.
Here's how newly created shortcut will appear in the app.
I am hoping you have the video stored on your iPhone and if not, do save it before running the shortcut. Now tap on the shortcut to run it and tap on Run Shortcut if asked.
You can either extract audio from video that is saved in your Camera Roll on in your iCloud account. I am choosing the former. Because I had only one video, there was no need to select anything. It took a few seconds for the notification to appear stating that the audio file is ready. You can now save it in either iCloud Drive or on your iPhone.
If saving on iPhone, you can use the Files app to browse and open the newly created audio file.

MP3 Converter is a better alternative. Tap on the Settings icon to select a different audio and video format. The default is set to MP3 and MP4 respectively. Moving on, tap on the ‘+’ icon and select the video file you want to extract audio from.
Once the video appears, tap on it to reveal a menu and select Convert to begin the extraction process.
There are two options. The Default Mode will directly extract audio in the format you have selected in the Settings. In the Advanced Mode, you can control variables like output format, audio encoding, audio range, bit rate, and more.

Once the app converts the audio, it will appear under the Converted Media tab.
The app is free with ads. You can $3.99 to remove ads and also the range and file type limits.
3. Video to MP3
Video to MP3 converter is an excellent to extract audio from video files if you have a right amount of patience, and can tolerate a 5-second ad after every tap. But there are perks. You can also extract audio from YouTube videos right inside the app without downloading them first. Tap on the Video icon to choose one from your Gallery.
In the next screen, you can trim the video to your liking, and when done, you can give the extracted audio file a new name.
The third button at the bottom of the screen will take you to the YouTube homepage where you can search for any video and extract audio from it.

4. Video to MP3 Converter
Tap on the Convert (+ icon) to either select a pre-recorded video or shoot a new one. Since there are plenty of good video camera apps for iOS, I would suggest going with the Gallery option. Choose a video and hit on the Convert button on the next screen to begin the extraction process.
You can then name the audio file and listen to it under the Converted tab.
The app also supports YouTube to Audio feature which is available under the For You tab. For $3.99, you can remove all ads and unlock themes — not really required but they look cool.
Download Video to MP3 Converter5. Video to MP3 Converter
The only app in the list that supports importing videos from cloud storage sites like Dropbox and Google Drive.
Simply select the video from your local Photos app or import it from your cloud storage account and trim the video to your liking. Tap the Convert button to initiate the process.
Though the description mentions supporting bit rate, but I couldn’t find that option. Maybe it was disabled temporarily? You can remove the ads with an in-app purchase of $3.99.
Listen Carefully
iOS platform has plenty of options when it comes to apps that can extract audio from video files whether they are stored locally, in the cloud or on YouTube. If you are working on a project and need to extract audio from videos daily, I would suggest going for the premium version.

If you want to rip a YouTube video to your computer, you have lots of online options. Too many in fact to know which ones are better and more trustworthy than the others.
We have previously shown you a few sites which help you download videos and playlists, but that involves using other peoples servers, checking the page source, hunting for obscure download links, and dealing with endless NSFW pop-ups on other peoples domains.
Why bother with all that when you can quickly and effortlessly rip a YouTube video using a software app most people already have installed on their computer? I refer of course to VLC Player.
This example has been done on a MacOS laptop but the Windows method is very similar.
How To Rip a YouTube Video Using VLC Player
- Go to the YouTube page of the video you want to rip and copy the URL of the video.
- If you haven’t already installed VLC Player, grab it from the website and install it. It’s free.
- When it’s installed, open it up and choose File – Open Network. On Windows, it’s Media – Open Network Stream.
- In the box that pops up, paste the YouTube URL of the video you want to rip.
- The YouTube video will now proceed to stream inside VLC.
- If you are on a Mac, now click Window – Media Information. If on Windows, go to Tools – Codec Information.
- At the very bottom of the screen is a very long link in the Location field. Highlight the entire link, right-click and select Copy.
- Go to a browser and in the URL address bar, paste that long link from the Location field in VLC. The YouTube video should now start playing automatically in the browser. Right-click on the video and choose Save Video As.
- By default, the video will be saved as videoplayback (without a format). So give your file a name and try first with an mp4 format. If that doesn’t work, then try avi.
- Your file will now be downloaded to your computer in the quality that the original uploader provided it in. So picture and audio quality will vary.

Given how easy ripping a YouTube video was, who needs online converters and hunting through website page sources? I sure don’t.
