MP4 files open in QuickTime Player and import straight into iMovie, Final Cut Pro or Keynote.
Save only the audio on MacBook
Every video result has an MP3 button, plus an M4A button for the untouched original audio. The conversion runs in your browser, so nothing is uploaded.
Drop the MP3 into the Music app to add it to your library, or use the M4A for GarageBand and Logic projects without re-encoding.
Tips for MacBook users
- On a laptop, take the highest quality available; you may want to edit or present the clip later.
- Paste with ⌘ + V and press Return. You never need to touch the mouse.
- Choose the highest quality on a Mac: storage is rarely an issue and you may want to edit the clip later.
- Chrome, Firefox, Arc and Edge on macOS all work the same way.

Which app plays downloaded X videos on MacBook?
QuickTime Player opens the MP4 files natively. They also work in VLC, IINA and every editing app.
Is there a SaveXClips extension for MacBook?
No extension is needed. The website does everything, and not installing an extension keeps your browser safer.
