MP3 or MP4: which tile should you tap?

MP3

MP3 for sound

Choose MP3 when you only want to listen: music, podcasts, talks or lessons you want to keep offline. Audio files are small, so they save space on your phone.

  • Plays in any music app or player
  • The audio size is shown before you download
MP4

MP4 for video

Choose MP4 when you want the picture as well as the sound. Every quality tile shows its exact file size, so you know what you are saving before it reaches your device.

What is Ytmp3?

Ytmp3 is a free YouTube to MP3 converter that also keeps videos as MP4 files. Everything happens inside your browser, whether you use a phone, a tablet or a laptop, so you never install software or sign up. Paste a link, choose a format and your file opens right away.

We made it quick and honest. Before you download anything, you see the real size of each file, from a light 144p clip up to a sharp 1080p video. Audio comes as MP3 at 320, 256, 192 or 128 kbps. There is no waiting screen: your formats appear a second or two after you paste the link, and the site is designed first for small phone screens, where most people use it.

Ytmp3 questions and answers

What is Ytmp3?

Ytmp3 is a free website for saving YouTube videos as MP3 songs or MP4 clips. Paste a link, tap a tile and the file opens in a new tab, ready to save, without leaving the browser.

Is Ytmp3 free to use?

Yes. Converting and downloading are free, and you do not need to register or log in.

What formats and qualities does Ytmp3 offer?

Why does my file open in a new tab?

Each tile is a direct link to the file, so your browser may play it instead of saving it at once. On Android, tap ⋮ and then the download arrow. On iPhone, touch and hold the tile and choose Download Linked File. On a computer, right-click the tile and choose Save link as.

How do I get an MP3 onto my iPhone?

Use Safari: paste the link, leave the MP3 tab as it is, then touch and hold the Download bar and choose Download Linked File. Afterwards, open the Files app and look in Downloads to play or share the song.

Where do downloads go on Android?

Usually into the Downloads folder. Tapping the notification that appears after the download opens the file straight away, and apps called Files or My Files list it too.

Do Shorts, short share links and playlist links work?

Yes. Shorts links and the short share links from the YouTube app work like normal links. With a playlist link, only the video in the link is saved, not the whole playlist.

Why does a video show an error?

Private, removed and blocked videos cannot be saved. Check that the link is complete or try another video. If the service is busy, wait a few seconds and try again.
