Convert to WebM

Files never leave your device.

About WebM

WebM is the web’s open video and audio format, usually with Opus audio — it’s what browsers record and YouTube streams. Convert to WebM for audio that web players and browsers handle natively. Drop in any audio or video file — the audio is converted in your browser, and nothing is uploaded.

Questions

Are my files uploaded?

No. The conversion runs in your browser, on your device. Your files are never sent to a server, and closing the tab discards everything.

Will converting to WebM lose quality?

WebM is a lossy format, so a little detail is traded for a much smaller file. We use 160 kbps by default, or the source’s own bitrate when it’s lower, so the file is never bigger than it needs to be. You can change the bitrate, sample rate and channels in the settings.

Is there a file size limit?

There’s no set limit. Files are converted on your device, so very large ones depend on its free memory and storage — an hour-long recording converts fine on a recent phone.

Can I convert several files at once?

Yes. Add as many files as you like; they convert one after another to WebM, and you can download each one or all of them together.

Which browsers does it work in?

Current Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari on desktop, and Chrome and Safari on phones. Firefox on Android can’t create WebM files. If a file can’t be converted in your browser, its row says so.
