What you get: M4A (AAC), cut from the video
The sound is cut out of the pin's MP4 on your own device: the AAC samples are copied byte for byte into an .m4a file, with no re-encoding. In our tests a 9.5-second clip gave an 80 KB M4A and a 13-second clip 109 KB. If a video has no sound track, the tool says so instead of giving you a silent file.

Good to know in Chrome
Chrome may block a download if the site or owner prevents it; our download links are normal file downloads.
If the download does not show up in Chrome
- Check Chrome's Downloads first: On a computer, the download icon next to the address bar; on Android, More › Downloads.
- Make sure the pin is public. Private pins and secret boards cannot be read without logging in, and this tool never asks for your Pinterest password.
- Links expire after one hour. If a button stops working, paste the pin link again.
- A pin.it short link must be complete: copy it again from Share › Copy link.
