Turning QuickTime and iPhone footage into text
MOV is Apple's QuickTime container and the format your iPhone, iPad, and most Mac screen recorders write by default. It is excellent for editing and terrible for searching — which is why a MOV to text converter is usually the fastest way to find the one sentence you need in an hour of footage.
TranscribeX reads the audio track inside the MOV directly, so there is no need to export an audio-only version first. Interviews, walk-and-talk footage, event recordings, and product demos all work the same way: upload, choose the language, and let speaker detection separate the voices.
The result exports as plain TXT when you want notes, quotes, or a blog draft, and as timestamped SRT when the goal is captions. Uploaded files are processed securely and deleted after transcription, so unpublished footage stays unpublished.
