What is the method to convert WhatsApp voice memos to MP3?
The method to convert WhatsApp voice notes to MP3 is based on the use of a file converter since the application compresses the audios in the .opus extension. Either from your PC or mobile device, you will need a conversion tool before sharing audio on any device or using voice memos for other purposes.
On iPhone mobile
On the iPhone mobile, you can convert WhatsApp audios to MP3 format by downloading the files in the first instance. To do this, you must select the audio you want to save and hold it down until the options are displayed. Then press ‘Share’ and select ‘Save to files’.
In some cases when the option ‘Save in files’ does not appear, you can choose to select the button ‘Edit actions’ and in ‘Other actions’ activate the option that interests us. Then, locate the audio you want to store in a folder (local drive or removable drive) and hit the ‘Save’ button.
Once you perform the above action, your audio will be stored in the .M4A format. For this reason, you will need to convert it to the .MP3 format. To achieve this, download the application ‘The Audio Converter’ from the App Store and proceed to access this tool once the installation is complete.
Choose the file that you previously saved with the .M4A format and select the ‘.MP3 MP3 Audio’ format and wait a few seconds while the tool performs the conversion process. At the end of the task, you will be able to see the file with an .MP3 extension and convert other files by repeating the same steps.

Select the audio file based on the shipping date and the order of appearance.
Once you mark the file of your choice, press ‘OK’ and the ‘Convert to MP3’ button, not without first indicating the path where the file will be saved after the conversion.
