    Same sound, less space

    FLAC typically reduces music to about half to two thirds of its WAV size while keeping the audio intact, which makes it the standard for archives and collections.

    Good for long-term storage

    FLAC is an open format with wide support, so your files will stay readable for years to come.

    FAQ

    Is FLAC really lossless?

    Yes. Decoding a FLAC gives back the same samples that were encoded.

    How much space will I save?

    It depends on the material. Quiet speech and simple music compress the most, and dense, loud music the least.

    Is my WAV uploaded?

    No. The encoding runs on your device.

    What can you do with an audio converter?

    Editors turn phone recordings into WAV files that every timeline accepts; podcasters export a small MP3 from a large master; musicians archive takes as lossless FLAC; and anyone stuck with a file a device refuses to play can switch it to a format that works everywhere.
