I recorded something with my iPhone 13 , the sound file is .m4a ..

I need to trim the audio file.

I tried VLC but it exported the trimed file to .MP4 but I cannot hear it now when I play it through VLC.


There must be an easy and free way to do this.

Audacity should be able to do it. Sorry, I am traveling and don't have a link, but if you search for it on Google it should pop right up.

I agree with Catnip. Audacity is what I always use to trim audio files.
