What is MOV, and how do you transcribe it?
MOV (QuickTime Movie) is a video format you'll typically find from iPhone and Mac recordings and screen captures. Apple's QuickTime container — we pull the audio and transcribe it.
To turn it into text you don't need to convert anything first — upload the MOV file (or paste a link) and Whipscribe returns a clean transcript with speaker labels and per-word timestamps, exportable to TXT, SRT, VTT, or DOCX. Everything runs on private infrastructure that never hands your file to a third-party AI service.
