Remove audio from video free: drop in a clip of up to 1200 MB and it comes back silent in seconds, because the picture is copied across bit for bit and never re-encoded.
Someone talking in the background, music you cannot use, or a clip that should just be silent — you get it back without any sound and the picture is not touched, not re-encoded and not made worse.

Every converter here is free, full size, no account. Photos convert in your browser and never leave it, except camera RAW files and SVG tracing. Those, like video, audio and e-books, need our server — and we delete them right after.
Muting a video does not need the picture to be re-encoded, so we do not. The video stream is copied across bit for bit and only the audio track is dropped. That means it finishes in seconds even for a long clip, and the result looks exactly like what you put in — no second-generation blur.
This online audio remover from video is a browser tool, not a download: drop the file, wait a few seconds, download the silent copy. It works to remove audio from MP4 files as well as MOV, WebM, MKV and AVI, and to remove sound from video here there are no settings to configure. The whole audio track comes off in one pass, voice and music alike, so it doubles as a video voice remover when the voice is the problem. What comes back is an MP4 without audio: the same resolution and sharpness, just a video with no sound.
This video audio remover takes the whole sound track off any clip and always returns an MP4 with the same picture, in seconds, because only the audio is dropped. It is a sound remover for the whole track, not a filter, and as an MP4 sound remover it works the same on a phone: mute a clip before a presentation, or before you post or pass on a recording. Want to remove voice from video but keep the music? That is stem splitting, which StemGrab does (see below).
Copyright claims on background music are the usual reason: a silent clip cannot be flagged for a song. Beyond that it is the quickest way to kill a noisy recording before you put your own voice-over on it, or to hand over a screen recording without whatever was said while making it.
You can remove audio from video online free up to 1200 MB and 20 minutes per clip, with no watermark added and no sign-up, as many times as you like, one clip at a time.
The HEIC, JPG, PNG and WebP converters here run entirely inside your browser and never send anything to us. Video containers cannot be rewritten in a browser, so your file is uploaded to our own machine, muted there, and deleted immediately afterwards — we keep no copy.
Limits: free up to 1200 MB and 20 min; a pass raises that to 3 GB and 40 min, or 6 GB and 2 hours.
Drop the video on the box, wait a few seconds, download the silent MP4. The picture is copied across untouched, only the sound track is dropped, and there's nothing to install.
Want the audio instead of a silent video? Video to MP3 pulls the sound out rather than dropping it. Just need to cut the clip down first? Trim video handles that. Looking to quiet the background noise instead of removing sound entirely? Remove silence from audio is the gentler option.
There is nothing to set. This tool has one job — remove audio from video — so there is no timeline, no track list and no slider to work out first. If you would rather keep the sound and only turn it down, louder or quieter does that, and add music to video puts a new soundtrack on the silent file afterwards.
The box names five: MP4, MOV, WebM, MKV and AVI. A few more go through the same way — M4V, WMV, FLV, MPG, MPEG and 3GP — because the same reader sits behind all of them. Whatever you put in, you get an MP4 back, with the picture track copied over exactly as it was found.
A video can be up to 1200 MB and 20 minutes long. That covers almost everything people want muted: twenty minutes of 1080p off a phone sits well under 1200 MB. If your file is larger, trim video can cut a piece out of it first, or compress video can make the whole thing smaller. There is no daily limit — mute one clip or thirty, nobody counts and nobody asks you to sign up.
Two things stop the tool, and it says so instead of handing you a broken file. A video with no sound in it at all gets a plain message: there is nothing there to remove. And a file over the size limit is refused with the limit named, before it goes anywhere.
About your file, said plainly: the HEIC, JPG, PNG and WebP converters here run inside your browser and never send anything to us, but a browser cannot rewrite a video container, so your clip does go up to our own machine. It is muted there and deleted the moment the silent copy is on its way back to you. We keep no copy, for anyone, paid or not.
WebM, MOV and AVI go through exactly like MP4: the picture track is copied across untouched and an MP4 comes back.
Most online video tools take your file apart and build a new one. The picture is decoded and then encoded again, and every round of that throws a little detail away — the grain in a dark corner, the edge of a caption, the sharpness of a face. Do it twice and you can see it. This is what people mean by "generation loss", and it is why a clip that has been through four websites looks like a photocopy of a photocopy.
Removing the sound needs none of that. A video file is a box with two things in it: a picture track and a sound track. To mute a video you throw the sound track away and put the picture track into a new box exactly as you found it, bit for bit. Nothing is decoded, so nothing can be lost. That is the whole trick, and it is why this page can promise no re-encoding without a footnote.
It also explains two things you will notice. First, it is fast: seconds, even for a long recording, because there is no encoding work to do. Second, the muted file is usually only a little smaller than the original — the sound was a small part of it and the picture, the big part, is unchanged. If you wanted a smaller file rather than a silent one, that is a different job: compress video does re-encode, on purpose.
Instagram and TikTok. Background music you never cleared is the quickest way to get a post muted, taken down, or blocked in half the world. A silent clip cannot be matched against a song, so the safe order is: strip the sound here first, then add a licensed track inside the app. Reels and TikTok both let you lay their own music over a silent video, and that music is cleared for you.
A clip in a presentation. A video that starts talking over the person presenting is a small disaster in a quiet room. Muting the file itself is safer than remembering to mute the player: it stays silent on the other laptop, in the other version of PowerPoint or Keynote, in the meeting room you have never seen before. One less thing to test five minutes beforehand.
A screen recording you are passing on. Screen recordings pick up whatever was said while you made them — a colleague on a call, the radio, a remark about a client. Removing the audio from video before you hand it over means you do not have to trust your own memory of what was in the room that afternoon.
Three more that come up often: a doorbell or security camera clip where the sound is the privacy problem, a wedding or holiday video that is getting a new soundtrack anyway, and a long lecture recording that somebody only wants the slides out of.
A MOV straight off an iPhone goes through the same way, keeping its exact resolution and frame rate.
It takes the whole sound track off, all of it, and it leaves the picture alone. Sound is the only thing this page can remove from video; the jobs below are just as real, but they are other tools — and it is cheaper to say so here than to let you find out after the download:
All free, all without an account, and all on this site unless the link says otherwise.
Drop the video in and download the result. There is nothing to set: the whole audio track comes off and the picture is left exactly as it was, and most clips are finished in a few seconds. That is how to remove audio from video, or how to remove a soundtrack from a video clip, on a laptop or a phone, with nothing to install; to remove sound on video files in bulk, run them one after another, since there is no daily cap.
No. The picture is copied across without being re-encoded, so it is identical to your original: same resolution, same sharpness, same grain. Tools that rebuild the file lose a little every time; this one never touches the picture.
Not with this tool: it takes the whole track off. To separate voice from music, removal of the whole track is no use; you need a stem splitter: StemGrab's background-music remover works as a background music remover and gives you the video back with just the voice, and as a music remover it can also keep the music and remove the voice, or isolate a voice from a song.
Yes. No account, no watermark and no daily limit on how many videos you mute. Muting is free for everyone up to 1200 MB and 20 minutes per video; a pass raises that to 3 GB and 40 minutes, or 6 GB and 2 hours with the bigger pass.
Seconds, even for a long video, because nothing has to be re-encoded. Most of the wait is the file travelling: up to our machine and back down as a silent copy. On a normal connection a twenty-minute recording is done inside a minute.
MP4, MOV, WebM, MKV and AVI go in, and M4V, WMV, FLV, MPG, MPEG and 3GP go through the same way; you always get an MP4 back, with the picture track copied exactly and the audio removed.
Yes, and we would rather say that than dress it up. A browser cannot rewrite a video container, so your clip goes to our own machine, the sound is taken off there, and the file is deleted the moment the silent copy is sent back — no copy is kept. The HEIC, JPG, PNG and WebP converters on this site are the other way round: those never leave your browser at all.
Up to 1200 MB and 20 minutes per video on the free tier; a pass raises that to 3 GB and 40 minutes, or 6 GB and 2 hours. Too big and the page catches it before anything uploads; too long and it has to upload first, because only the server can measure a video's length, and then it is turned away with the limit named. Trim video can cut it down first, or compress video can shrink it.
Then there is nothing to take off, and the tool says so instead of handing you a copy of what you already had. That message doubles as a quick check on a file you are unsure about: no complaint means there really was a sound track in there.
Nothing to worry about: your original isn't changed. You download a new, silent file next to it.
Online, nothing to install. Every online remove audio from video job runs on our server and the file is deleted afterwards; you can remove sound from a video online on a phone just as well as on a laptop, and it's a quick way to mute video files without an editor.
Yes. It is a web page, so it works in Safari or Chrome on a phone exactly as it does on a laptop: nothing to install, no app store. To remove audio from video on iPhone, pick the clip from your camera roll and download the silent copy; the MOV from an iPhone camera works like any other file, so how to remove audio from iPhone video is the same single step as anywhere else.
Not in one go — this tool takes one video at a time. There is no daily limit though, so you can run them one after another for as long as you like without being asked to sign up or wait between clips.
Slightly — audio is usually a small fraction of total size. Removing it typically saves five to ten percent.
Yes — once the video has no audio you can import it into any video editor and attach a new soundtrack.
No. This only strips the audio track; the picture, including any captions or subtitle text burned into it, passes through completely untouched. To remove text from video you have to paint over pixels in every single frame, and nothing on this network automates that for a whole video clip: WatermarkNinja's video watermark remover is honest about the same limit and cleans one still frame you export yourself. If the words are spoken rather than written on screen, muting the video at least removes the sound of them. If the captions came from a separate subtitle file, re-exporting the video without that file is the fix, which is the easy way to remove captions from video exports; to erase or remove words from video frames afterwards is the hard way.
No — this only removes the audio track; the file's metadata (creation date, device model, and GPS location if your phone recorded one) copies straight across into the muted file, untouched. If you need to remove metadata video apps store, mute is the wrong tool for that: a dedicated metadata stripper, not an audio remover, is what actually clears those fields. The same applies whether you want to remove metadata from video files one at a time or remove metadata from videos in bulk — this page changes the sound, nothing in the file's hidden fields.
