Frequently Asked Questions

Why should I convert M4A files to MP3? +
M4A is the standard audio format used by Apple devices and iTunes. While excellent in quality, it isn't universally supported. Converting to MP3 ensures your audio will play on Windows, older Android devices, and legacy car stereos.
Will the conversion degrade the audio quality? +
Since both formats are lossy, there is a minor theoretical loss of data. However, if you select a high bitrate (256 kbps or 320 kbps) for the MP3 export, the audio will sound identical to the original M4A.
Is the process secure for private recordings? +
Completely secure. The tool uses a local WebAssembly engine to transcode the audio entirely within your browser. Your voice memos or music tracks are never sent over the internet.
