Trying to convert youtube videos to mp3 files on my phone, the website I had been doing it on is down and all the alternatives are scam sites and virus links. Any alts you know?

Edit: i have an iPhone, I would prefer a browser based converter if possible.

I'm using yt-dlp. Its a command line app, but quite easy to use. It's primary function is downloading entire videos, but it can rip out audio into various formats as well.

Edit: I'm apparently bad at reading, didn't notice you're looking for a phone app. NewPipe has has a video and audio download functions.

I should mention it’s for an iPhone specifically. I used to use web based converters but they are taken down

You can absolutely use yt-dlp on iPhone though via a-shell.

You can just install it and then type pip install yt-dlp.

We do this.

Can yt-dlp download adult restrictioned videos?

Yes but you will have to take extra steps to supply a valid cookie from a signed in account: https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/issues/11296#issuecomment-2466538349

Thanks for the info.

I'll admit I haven't checked, but I haven't run into any restrictions so far
