Convert YouTube to MP3 in 3 steps

  1. Copy the link

    Open the song on YouTube or YouTube Music, tap Share and choose Copy link.

  2. Paste and tap Convert to MP3

    Drop the link into the box above. The song and its MP3 qualities show up in a second or two.

  3. Tap MP3 and keep it

    Tap MP3 next to the bitrate you want. The audio file opens in a new tab, ready to save.

Why MP3 is the easy choice for music

MP3 is the format almost every device understands. Old phones, new phones, laptops, car stereos and Bluetooth speakers all play it without extra apps.

  • Plays offline in any music app
  • Much smaller than a video file of the same song
  • Easy to send to a speaker or a car stereo
  • Long DJ mixes and podcasts work too

One honest tip: the sound can never be better than the original upload, so start from a good-quality video, like the official audio.

Find your song after saving

  • Android

    Open the Files app and look in Downloads. Most music players also find new songs on their own after a moment.

  • iPhone

    Open the Files app and tap Downloads. From there you can play the song or share it to another app.

  • Computer

    Look in your Downloads folder, then drag the file into your music player or library.

Small tips, better songs

  • Choose the official audio or lyric upload for the cleanest sound.
  • YouTube Music links work just like normal YouTube links.
  • A link from a playlist saves only that one song.
  • If a video won't open, try another upload of the same song.

YouTube to MP3 questions

Which MP3 bitrate should I pick?

Pick 320 kbps if you are not sure. It is marked as the top pick. Keep in mind that the sound can never be better than the original video.

How long does it take?

Usually just a second or two. Mp3Paw finds the song, lists the qualities and the file opens as soon as you tap MP3.

Can I save a long DJ mix or podcast?

Yes. Long mixes, live sets and podcasts work the same way as a normal song. The audio file size is shown above the list.

Can I save a whole playlist?

No. Mp3Paw saves one song per link. If you paste a link from a playlist, only that song is used.

Why didn't my MP3 save?

Browsers inside WhatsApp, Instagram or Facebook sometimes block files. Open this page in Chrome or Safari and try again. If the song plays instead of saving, open the browser menu (⋮) and tap Download.

Do you keep my songs or links?

No. We don't store the links you paste or the files you save, and there is no download history.
