How to trim audio on iPhone from the Files app

Find an MP3 or WAV in Files or iCloud Drive, mark the section in QuickEdit and find your WAV trim after downloading it in Safari.

Open single trim

The editor interface is in Spanish for now. Button names appear in Spanish, followed by their meaning in English.

Find the audio you want to trim

Open Files and search for the track name. In Browse, go to On My iPhone if you saved the file on the device, or to iCloud Drive if you saved it there. If the file came from an email or a download, also check the Downloads folder. Open the audio to check it is available before selecting it in the editor. Find files on iPhone, Apple Support.

For the first try, choose an MP3 or WAV of about 30 seconds that you can play. QuickEdit web accepts mono or stereo files up to five minutes and 64 MiB each.

Mark the section in QuickEdit

  1. Open the Recorte (trim) tab of QuickEdit in Safari. Tap Abrir archivo (open file) and find the audio in the file picker.
  2. Enter Inicio (segundos) (start, seconds) and Final (segundos) (end, seconds). If you want to keep second 12 to 27, type those two values and tap outside each field to confirm. The trim will last 15 seconds.
  3. Tap Escuchar edición (play edit) to check both edges. If the audio control appears without starting to play, tap its play button. Adjust the times if you have cut off a syllable or the first beat.

Save and find the WAV

Tap Descargar WAV (download WAV) and accept the download if Safari asks. QuickEdit prepares a 24-bit, 48 kHz PCM copy with the channels of the source. If you opened intro.mp3, look for intro.edit.wav in Safari downloads or in Files → Downloads, inside the location you use for downloads. Open the copy and check its length before sending it.
