Video to Audio doesn't. Every conversion happens inside your browser using FFmpeg compiled to WebAssembly. Nothing is uploaded. Nothing is logged. There is no account, no sign-up, no email required. The extension asks for only two permissions — sidePanel (for the panel itself) and storage (to remember your preferred format and language). That is the entire permission list. 🎧 The three output formats explained 🔸 MP3 — the universal video to audio choice. Plays everywhere, small files, ideal for podcasts and casual listening. 🔸 M4A (AAC) — best quality-to-size ratio. Pick this when you want better fidelity than MP3 at the same file size, especially on Apple devices. 🔸 WAV — uncompressed, lossless. Choose WAV when the audio is going into a DAW or editor for further processing. ⚙️ How to convert video to audio with Video to Audio 1. Click the Video to Audio icon in your Chrome toolbar. 2.
