What is 3GPP file?
The 3GPP file extension is used to signify low-bitrate, multimedia files created using 3GPP technologies. It is considered a specialised form of the MP4 file type, and is typically used to store audio, video, graphics, and other data inside a single file container. 3GPP files may contain various multimedia content such as manipulated images, video text streams, and audio streams that have been compressed with one of the supported compression algorithms.

What is MP3 file?
A MP3 .MP3 file is an audio format that utilizes the MPEG (Moving Pictures Expert Group) compression technique to reduce the size of audio files. The MP3 format compresses digitized audio to reduce the size of each sound clip while maintaining its original audio quality. Audio files encoded in the MP3 format can be played back in both Apple iTunes and Windows Media Player, as well as many other digital audio programs. This makes it a popular choice for both music producers and listeners. [ ⏩ ] MP3 file extension
Software, that you can use to convert
How to convert the file from 3GPP to MP3?
To successfully convert the 3GPP file to MP3, you should install one of the applications from the list. After installing the software, open the program and select the file you want to convert (file-name.3GPP). The next step is to select the target format from the list, in this case MP3 (usually converters allow you to convert to several different formats, so check out their features - maybe one of the available formats will suit you more than MP3).
What is a file conversion?
A data conversion is normally an automated process to some extent. The effect of the operation of one program is automatically the input product of another application. If that does not happen we need to help the process a little bit and convert the file on our own, e.g. 3GPP to MP3. To obtain a matched structure of the data, it is necessary to use an appropriate converter.
Program for converting 3GPP files to MP3 files is a kind of a "binary code translator" compensating for the differences in the code or translating it in such a way so that another application could use it. For us, as users, the visible change will be only another file extension. (After converting the file, it will be the extension MP3, while before this step we had the 3GPP file). For the programs, the difference is on a much higher level – either the application will be able to open a new MP3 file, or not.
