Frequently Asked Questions

Why convert M4A to MP3?
M4A is Apple's audio container format that may not play on many non-Apple devices, car stereos, and older media players. MP3 is the universal audio standard supported by virtually every device, player, and platform ever made. Converting ensures your audio plays everywhere.
What is the difference between M4A and MP3?
M4A typically uses AAC codec which offers slightly better quality than MP3 at the same bitrate. However, M4A has limited support on non-Apple devices. MP3 offers universal compatibility with virtually every device and player, making it the safer choice for sharing.
Does converting M4A to MP3 lose quality?
Both M4A (AAC) and MP3 are lossy formats. Converting between them involves re-encoding which may introduce some quality loss. Our converter uses 320kbps encoding to minimize any degradation. For most listeners, the difference is imperceptible.
What is the maximum file size?
You can convert M4A files up to 50MB in size. This covers most typical music files, voice memos, and audio recordings.
Are my audio files safe and private?
Absolutely! All M4A to MP3 conversion happens locally in your web browser. Your audio files never upload to any server. Once you close the page, all data is permanently deleted.
